Marion Cotillard Is Amazing at Lip Syncing - The Graham Norton Show

[@boyintheboxers]

She totally deserved that Oscar. One of the few times the academy got it right!

[@fanaticpotter]

Boy In The Box agree

[@yarawatawat909]

Yep

[@csgoark2521]

They atleast got it wrong one time: Brie Fartson

[@joebarr725]

[@PozoBlue]

Her role as Edith Piaf was one of the most extraordinary performances I have seen in my entire life. It was like she was possessed by Piaf. I've never seen anything quite like it. Breathtaking, devastating, superb, mind-blowing...unforgettable. She's a rare breed of the consummate, method actor with genius talent.

[@PozoBlue]

btw, I was convinced until this day it was in fact her singing in the movie, even though rationally I knew she couldn't possibly sound exactly like Piaf, but her lip syncing was so convincing, it fooled my brain LOL

[@latroletteeeee]

Piaf stopped possessing her during her death scene in Batman then...

[@batshitcrazy757]

Animationexclusive agreed. It was pretty bad

[@pureffm]

La_trolette True, French actors are the best when it comes to depicting life and love but suck at showing death, it's not a topic in French cinema unlike in the US where 60% of films have deaths and violence shown in it. Culturally, the French are worlds apart.

[@katydid41]

Except Marion has many times explained that she is NOT a METHOD actor at all. She rejects/avoids that approach. She doesn't want to use any formulaic process in her work. Each role she approaches on its own terms and finds a new process each time. She demands spontaneity and being in the moment from herself and no two takes are identical... she abhors cookie cut out moments and demands to the right to be fresh in each new take. That is how she works. She makes this clear in many interviews. This is why actors adore her and love working with her; she automatically challenges them to be as authentic as she is. They up their game to match hers and give excellent performances as a result. I agree with your conclusions about the quality of Marion's work but not about ascribing Method acting to her. Her method is to have NO repeated method.

[@spiderliliez]

I love how quiet they are listening to her.... THE COTTILARD EFFECT. LOL

[@michael9291]

SPIDER LILIEZ cause she was boring them to sleep

[@breakfastonuranus]

Why she shared a warming experience ​@@michael9291

[@tonybaihao4178]

To be precise, her surname is COTILLARD (Coti-yard, silent D).

[@ilhamonytube]

No matter how much I watch Le Vie en Rose, her performance playing Edith Piaf always mesmerizes me. It's so strange and magical and wonderful.

[@madisilver460]

She gave a riveting performance of Edith! A most brilliant film of this genre. Love it.

I have no idea how he did that lol Im crying

[@MLSoll]

2:06 I love the way she said thank you and grabbed his hand. So sweet

[@Katjessss]

How Michael and James are looking at her when she's singing is so cute😍😍😍

[@asymmetricbeing]

Hahahaha, great spot!

[@ObsessedPersonality]

Marion: Let me tell you about how the role consumed me, and how difficult it was for me to get over the role. Graham: Can you go back to the role and lip sync like the character you just told me consumed your life? Marion: ...

[@Cashback13]

All in the name of 'Entertainment' :-0

[@garanceyy]

So not delicate

[@macaak]

Just my thought.

[@haute03]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I don't think he was expecting her to go that deep lol.

[@kamalam29]

Yup, I thought the same. Fairly insensitive.

[@maximillianosaben]

That was really cool. I love hearing actors talk about the process for those big roles they do. And it's always fascinating to see what they retain from the characters even years later. It's such a personal relationship.

[@stephenmoran1000]

😂they used that music in Inception, and she stars in it. what a coincidence

[@latroletteeeee]

You should boil pasta.

[@disnotise9155]

That's not just on her. The director felt like it was okay and like there was no need to take another shot haha.

[@Napalmnate]

Fantastic movie!

[@hranolka2512]

Edith Piaf, Inception,Allied-her best movies ❤❤

[@NewsratC17]

Can we just appreciate Marion I just could never sit between James Mcavoy and Michael Fassbender lovingly staring at me while I try to lip sing lol

[@kcthewanderer]

Can't believe she's 41. I was expecting maybe early 30s.

[@Movies123Online]

kcthewanderer Well she's been in her 30s for a long time now. She was bound to grow out of it.

[@kcthewanderer]

Crystal U lol Yeah, time cured me of my 30s as well. My case just had more lasting effects than hers, methinks.

[@pinkpassionhp4036]

kcthewanderer she looks like late 40s to me

[@FungusMossGnosis]

Joice Ann, You sound early 10s to me.

[@SamA-is9dt]

These Hollywood vampires man. Ageless.

[@jamlym4974]

2:07 Love the way she holds his hand there in response to his compliment. She's so sweet.

[@PiCheZvara]

Marion's english got really good. I remember when she struggled with it back when she became big. Impressive. And I can't believe she is 41. She looks great. I would guess she is 35 max.

[@Katya_Lastochka]

PiCheZvara There's not that much of a difference, Idk

[@tonybaihao4178]

Well, Marion's first Hollywood role in a major film was in 2003's "Big Fish" by Tim Burton. As she was just 26-27 in that film, she must have learnt English very seriously and possibly travelled abroad during her young years.

[@wymeranth]

James's three-piece suit is superb! Great style.

[@silentrefusal9911]

Gosh... She is a such a real woman. Those eyes, face, lips... Her voice. Her way of talking. I just love everything about her.

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

4:03 damn she nailed the pause.

[@haitianxu]

Pfft a real method actor would have learned to actually sing those lines.

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

hahaha, nice. you must either be trolling or very dissatisfied about your life.

[@haitianxu]

***** You just have low standards.

[@duvan.deschain]

With original music, sure. But this was Édith Piaf, even if she had learnt to sing, it would've never sounded how it was supposed to.

[@cbb3480]

haitianxu You have issues

[@suwpoqzwn19]

Wow, she was really good. The passion in her eyes.

[@SceneArtisan]

Marion - the film was excellent, you were excellent, Piaf was extraordinary.

Still better than be american, when you see the mentality, the lack of spirituality, the poverty of architecture, the president you choose democraticly, i totaly prefer to be an european or a french.

[@alucardhellsing1037]

She's French what more can I say.

[@brrrrr12]

Everyone likes Graham! That's why they like his show and why he gets the best guests.

[@neXib]

Because all guests are there at once. Simple really :P

[@shadowboxing7029]

He does his research, he finds out things about them and guides them towards talking about it. They're talking about themselves and the audience receives them well, which makes them feel more at ease. He picks topics he thinks people will find interesting and funny and he fills in the gaps where necessary to keep it going. I would think he chooses particular people for his couch that he thinks will be a good match for providing entertaining interaction too. He makes it look all very effortless which is a testament to his command of his craft. It seems like just a group of people sitting down for a chat but I'd bet a lot of work goes into planning all of it.

[@umadbro69420]

She has so much depth and class. I love her!!!

[@mattbernabe]

She definitely gave one of the most jaw dropping, heartbreaking, brilliant performance in La Vie en Rose! One of the top greatest performances from the 2000's, or probably one of the greatest performances ever!!

WOW. That much talent, skill, and humility, in one person. Makes millions for the rich, using the connection, with us, just as they did thousands of years ago.

[@michaelthomas4835]

[@hipnhappenin]

Contijn Buijs It's one of those recessive traits, I think. My mom has connected earlobes and my dad doesn't. Hers are just really pronounced because she has big earlobes, too.

I've heard that. It's her ear lobes that really got her those parts.

No but it really is incredible though?? To poistion not just mouth and face, but tongue and throat in the right without actually singing, and to know exactly how the original singer must've done it to produce the sound she did...
