Marion Cotillard sublime on the rep carpet!

By Linda BADA

She is the star that every one adores! Breathtaking with her Christian Dior dress, Marion Cotillard was shining on the rep carpet for the 66th edition of the Festival Films' Cannes, yesterday with her  professional mentor  but also her partner in life, Guillaume Canet, and their love fruit born in 2007, Marcel.

The star rewarded for her wonderful performance in " La Vie en Rose" in 2007, introduced her new role in the Dardenne's Brothers movie "Two days and one night" in competition for the Golden Palm. This movie is about a working woman who is going to lose her job but always supported by her husband. She has only 2 days to convince her colleagues to waives their bonuses, and avoid to  be in one of the most precarious situation, for example the unemployement. So, visiting the concerned people one by one, she will try to make them understanding how important it is for her to keep this job. Ensues a real struggle, fury and despair! This poignant film where the beautiful actress is presented in bad day, stressed, with her less hair neat, pale face and destroyed eye has captivated audiences with its projection on screen on Thurday evening with an extraordinary standing ovation of 6 minutes clapping!

This is not the first year for the amazing actress, who was already there last year in order to present "The immigrant" by James Gray and also in 2012 for "Rust and Bone" by Jacques Audiart, which was a triumph accross the Altlantic but didn't receive the ultimate award. The Golden Palm this year for our beloved ? It is certainly a very good start for it!
