Marion Has Terrible Taste In Women


Marion Cotillard is "totally in love" with Best Actress fave Jennifer Lawrence, according to the French star, who won the award in 2007 for her role in La Vie En Rose.

Cotillard was thought to be in with a chance herself for her role in Rust and Bone, but failed to gain a nomination and is apparently prepared to leave the battle to Jen and fellow nominee Naomi Watts.

Asked about her performances of the year, she said: "Naomi Watts in The Impossible. Oh my God, prepare your tissue box. I didn’t know anything about the movie except it was about the tsunami. She totally killed me. And I’m totally in love with Jennifer Lawrence. She’s a prodigy. She’s 22, it’s insane."

Revealing to The Metro that she was impressed with Oscar fave Jen, nominated for her role in Silver Linings Playbook.

Despite being a relative outsider, Naomi got another vote from Niicole Kidman, who put the star alongside Emmanuelle Riva as the woman she wanted to win.

Youngster Jen is the current favourite to win Best Actress at 4/7, with Emmanuelle Riva moving to second favourite at 3/1 ahead of Jessica Chastain, who had previously been seen as the girl to beat Jen.

If it makes you feel better, I don't hate J-Law. I think she is a good actress, can be quite funny when not trying hard to be the ~cool gal, and more worthy of attention than, let's say, Kristen Stewart. Still I don't think she should be scoring all those awards when Riva, Chastain, Marion and Naomi did a far better job.

Oh, I totally agree the other ladies deserve the awards she's getting. It's totally Weinstein's doing and like I said above, I don't think SLP would be a 'thing' at all without him and the pull/sway he has over people and it'd be more of an indie darling than a critically acclaimed piece.

I wish that these politics weren't going on and made it so obvious who was going to most likely win and people could really get awarded for their talent, but sigh.
