Profession by inheritance
Memories of childhood in Orleans always evoke the warmest feelings - father, theater director, and mother, an actress, did everything to instill in her daughter a love of art. "My dad was a mime," Cotillard recalls in an interview, "so I know how to get around a wall that doesn't exist, ride a bike that doesn't exist, and eat an apple that doesn't exist."
Marion grew up among friends of her parents, who could not talk about anything but cinema and theater. "In our house there were always many different and very interesting adults, which made it much better than any schools or kindergarten". Children - and the actress has two more twin brothers, Guillaume and Quentin - literally absorbed everything they heard, and for them it was not in vain: Guillaume became popular writer, and Quentin is a painter and sculptor. As for Marion, she simply had no other way - except for acting. Her father staged performances for her in a small enterprise owned by him, in which her daughter played the main roles - her mother rehearsed with her, with her future star learned the basics of acting. Later, when Marion grew up, she was sent to school dramatic art and hired a music teacher for her.
Nevertheless, the real passion of the girl was not theater, but cinema. “The first Hollywood movie I saw,” Cotillard later recalled, “was Steven Spielberg’s Alien. The picture made such a strong impression on me that I burst into tears and sobbed until one of the audience said: this girl from the audience!"

French actress for Hollywood
Marion made her television debut at the age of nineteen - she got the episodic role of one of the Immortals in the then-famous French-Canadian TV series Highlander. But the career of a TV series star did not appeal to the young actress, she dreamed of a big movie. And, it would seem, her dream began to come true - in Philippe Harel's film "The Boy Who Wanted to be Kissed" she played the role of the mother of the protagonist. Critics praised her, and Marion hoped that now she would receive offers from directors regularly, but this did not happen - she was still invited only to serial projects. Cotillard was already desperate, deciding that she would have to become an actress of "soap operas", when fate finally gave her a happy chance - a role in Luc Besson's film "Taxi". One of the most popular French films in the history of cinema paved the way for Marion to Hollywood. And the painting "Life in pink color", in which Cotillard played the role of one of the most famous French women - singer Edith Piaf. Cotillard's work so impressed American film academics that they called the game of a European actress - the best, by the way, for the second time in the history of the Oscars (the first marked by this high title was Sophia Loren), before and after only American women won in this nomination.
Almost ten years have passed since receiving the Oscar, and during this time Hollywood achievement list Marion replenished with such tapes as "Johnny D", "Midnight in Paris", "The Dark Knight Rises", "Fatal Passion", " A little prince". But despite the success in Hollywood, Cotillard, with her characteristic modesty, still feels like a beginner. "It always seems to me, she jokes in an interview, that the portraits of great actors, which I looked at for a long time and with reverence, suddenly came to life and spoke to me."

When the Oscar curse capitulates
Marion had several novels - with director Stephane Guerin-Tilli, singer and actors Julien Rassam and Gaspard Ulliel, but none of them ended in a happy ending. Guerin-Tilli was much older than Marion, next to him she seemed to herself stupid and mediocre, and this realization made her look up at her loved one. Sinclair, being an avid party-goer, spent almost all evenings and nights in nightclubs, which Cotillard did not like to be modest and homebody. Ulliel really liked Marion, but she could not forgive the handsome man with the scar of betrayal - perhaps his romance with Cessille Cassel, Vincent Cassel's sister, was not serious, but he ruined his relationship with Cotillard. And Rassam committed suicide in the midst of their relationship, Cotillard experienced his death for a long time and hard. Tim Burton brought her back to life by offering to play in his film Big Fish.
With her husband, actor Guillaume Canet, Marion met while working on the film by Yann Samuel "Fall in love with me if you dare." The director warned Cotillard in advance about the inexperience of the novice actor: “He is a jockey, he fell off a horse, broke his back, he had to say goodbye to sports - so he decided to try his hand at cinema. If something doesn’t work out for him, help. Guillaume is a good boy, you'll like it!" On the set, young people played out passion, but in life, Guillaume was married to Diane Kruger and was not going to divorce her, and Marion did not have any special feelings for her partner.
After filming, they broke up - as it seemed to Cotillard, without any regrets, so she was very surprised when, a few years later, Canet unexpectedly called her from Los Angeles, where he studied directing courses. It turned out that he was divorced - the beautiful Diana began to do acting career and she was not up to the family. Guillaume mentioned that he was writing a script, Marion volunteered to help him, and since then, almost every evening, they talked for hours on the phone. And they met only after Cotillard received an Oscar - it seems that the belief that the actresses named the best by American film academics is collapsing in their personal lives, the so-called "Oscar curse", this time failed.
It soon became clear that these two were made for each other, and when the media found out that Marion was expecting a baby, no one had any doubts about this. On May 5, 2011, the couple had a son, Marcel Canet. True, even the birth of a baby did not force his parents, who live in a civil marriage, to officially register their relationship, but fans of Marion and Guillaume are sure that this event will not be long in coming.
