Trivia

Marion Cotillard drew on people she knows to find Stephanie, from two girls she knew in high school to Schoenaerts. She told Indiewire: "When I create a character I am always inspired by people--people around me, people I don't know, lives that I've read." See more »

A Masterpiece, a must-see
12 October 2012 | by See all my reviews

Amazing movie! Marion Cotillard is just breathtaking. I still can't believe how beautiful this movie is. The cinematography is just stunning and the score is beautiful. The performances are incredibly powerful and real. Marion Cotillard is able to speak without saying a word and that something extremely rare! She is so expressive you can feel her pain. I think it really touched me because the movie is really real, this story seems to be able to happened to anybody and that's Audiard force. His writing skills are just amazing. Marion should get an Oscar for a performance of this magnitude.I believe she will soon become Hollywood favorite. The way she invest herself in each role she takes is an example for any actress.
