Melvin Samudio I just watched Allied and she was really good. The first time I had seen her perform amd so now I will just have to watch this film. That, and my late mother-in-law love Piaf and now her granddaughter is older.
I was an absolute mess watching this scene. She deserved the Oscar for this one scene alone. Her pathos was gut wrenching. You feel her pain as she cries, "Marcel! Marcel! MARCEL!!" and slowly watch her go out of her mind with grief. Every cell of her body morphed into Edith - damn girl, you nailed it.
I can't imagine how hard it had to be for Marion to separate herself from Edith's character after filming. I mean, she didn't just portray Edith.....she lived, and breathed Edith! Absolutely well done!!
@@r.r.r9746 The real Piaf wasn't vulgar. She had her issues but she still kept a respectable image. Cotillard uses a very colloquial Parisian accent while Piaf spoke standard Parisian. Piaf was an alcoholic but she didn't made a spectacle of herself.
Black French that’s very interesting. Non-native French speakers would be unlikely to be differentiate between different registers in French,or be able to recognise their social significance. It is often people who, like piaf, have had precarious beginnings who set the most store by such things.
@@Big-guy1981 Parisian is an accent dude, what are you talking about?? Standard Parisian and "colloquial Parisian" is just informal French with the Parisian accent. I think you are just being very snoby about Marion's acting.
Oh!!It's a tribute, a consecration for what she brought to France. Not a show, a great lady who is an integral part of our life. We are not in a football game. I always deny your way of consuming, the Americans. Do not take it for yourself but for Americans in general.
Erwan Bergot you seem to be terribly confused and ignorant regarding their statement. “Stole the show” is a turn of phrase simply meaning phenomenal. It has nothing to do with with consumerism nor does saying Marion Cotillard deserved an award make @God of Mischief necessarily an American. Your prejudices and pre-conceived notions are showing...
LaDivinaLover thank you for clearing that up for that idiot. People like her should not be that condescending towards other especially when it shows how really dumb she is by not understanding a simple phrase.
Yes on their first date, but she confessed to Marcel she did not like the taste of it. But it didn't matter to her because she was with the one she loved. So her favorite food is roast beef not so much that she actually likes the taste, but because it reminded her of her love and one of the happiest times of her life.
she was originally selected because she had Edith's eyes and when they found she could sing even though she does not sing much in the film,her performance makes me wonder why other actors and actresses in the best foreign film category at the Oscars are not nominated as well like this year the lead in Son Of Saul should have been nominated at least
Let me tell you about this scene... remember when you were a kid and your hurt yourself really bad, like when you fell off the bike and your knee was bleeding? You may not have wailed but the tears were flowing really fast, you got choked up and your nose started running like crazy? That is how I reacted in this scene when I saw this film in the theater with my mom. We both love Piaf's music. I was so embarrassed, crying like a baby in the theater and my mom was comforting me by putting her arm around me and letting me bawl. I am around the same age as Marion Cotillard and I cannot believe that a person of her age gave such a performance. Not just the movement or the facial expressions, but she expressed such fragility and pain from deep inside which she so beautifully brought out on film. This is really one of the best performances I have ever seen.
Connor Jamison You wrote such a beautiful comment that I had to acknowledge it. The fate of all civilizations will always depend on the viability of empathy and, by extension, love. You reassure me that there is great hope. I learned about Marion and the movie from an interview with George Clooney. Asked who was the best actor of the last decade, he answered "Marion Cotillard" with no hesitation.
Cotillard's performance as Piaf is one for the ages, and I'll never forget how sweet and shy she was when she won her Oscar. She's been mostly wasted in peripheral roles in Hollywood films. She deserves some Streep-worthy roles.
It's amazing that Edith Piaf and Judy Garland both died at the young age of 47. Both lived lives filled with great artistic triumphs and personal tragedies.
Sadly, Billie Holiday did, too. Edith herself admired Billie for her voice and personal challenges, and felt a special connection with her, as both had been born on the same year.
Marion definitely deserved the award she received for this movie. She portrayed Edith perfectly. Showing her courage and her softer side brilliantly well. Brings me to tears just watching. Best movie ever ! R.I.P Edith. Thank you for your voice.
I saw the movie in the largest movie theater in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Was sitting first row with a friend. I was captivated right away. Loved the movie. At the end, when the credits appeared and the music was still playing, no one seemed to move. I turned around and saw everyone still sitting down. It is really strange to see hundreds of faces crying. I had never seen this before in a movie theater.
The only time I've seen that happen was at a showing of Schindler's List, not long after it was released. I went back to see that film again, the next day. I'd like to see this film "La vie en rose" again. Marion Cotillard was superb, and deserved the awards she received for playing this role.
For me it is when she's asked about what she'd do if she was unable to sing, to which she replies: "I could no longer live" - that's the uncompromising nature of a true artist, I felt this down in my soul. God bless Edith Piaf!
Marion is brilliant actress Piaf great singer But who is the director ,make up artist,writer.They are also incredible to make this great movie.After this I want to see more Marion' movies.
@@cmmiestcat I don't believe that she does, though? Now Edith Piaf had a very unique speaking voice that is pretty much impossible to copy. So she did a really really good job but it's nowhere near "almost identical". You can kind of tell that it's natural too.
Marion took voice lessons to improve her own abilities and to learn how Edith breathed and held herself, how she shaped her mouth, etc - she turned herself into a living representation of Edith Piaf, and it's astonishing - so much more than simply "lip syncing".
This film introduced me to Marion and damn what a powerhouse she is here. This is actually one of the best movies centered on a historical figure I have ever seen. Easily.
what a beautiful dialogue: Reporter: Do you pray? Ms. Piaf: yeah, for I believe in love I'm an atheist, but that's exactly what I think religions are supposed to be. That little piece of dialogue just made me cry
Edith Piaf s'en est allée un jour dans toute sa gloire et son immense splendeur, l'une des vedettes les plus rares dont les titres restent toujours aussi célèbres, ses titres, perdurerons à jamais à travers les ages !
Non, rien de rien Non, je ne regrette rien Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait Ni le mal Tout ça m'est bien égal Non, rien de rien Non, je ne regrette rien C'est payé, balayé, oublié Je me fous du passé Avec mes souvenirs J'ai allumé le feu Mes chagrins, mes plaisirs Je n'ai plus besoin d'eux Balayé les amours Avec leurs trémolos Balayé pour toujours Je repars à zéro Non, rien de rien Non, je ne regrette rien Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait Ni le mal Tout ça m'est bien égal Non, rien de rien Non, je ne regrette rien Car ma vie Car mes joies Aujourd'hui Ça commence avec toi
Great song, singing and acting! Marion Cotillard truly is the Best Actress and I applaud her Oscar! Thanks for sharing this touching part of the movie. With love from Canada, Evy
I cried so so much in the ending of this movie, when the lights were on again I wasn't the only one😊. Terrific film and one of the best performances in cinema history by Marion Cotillard, a well-deserved Oscar
I saw the movie when Marion won her Oscar. Didn't understand French then...but couldn't take my eyes off Marion to read the subtitles. She was fascinating. Now a decade later, this last scene still gives me the chills. She deserves more roles that match her skills. Thanks for the upload.
I can't remember a better performance by any actor in any film. Marion Cotillard stole Edith Piaf's soul, her body and voice and gave one of the best performances ever to be captured.
Edith Piaf est la raison pour laquelle j´étudie français. Merci pour tous les beaux moments, Edith. Edith Piaf is the reason, why i´m studying french in Paris now. Thanks for all the joy, you´ve given me, Edith.
Yo vivo en Argentina, y admiro profundamente la música francesa., de hecho estudio francés y canto en forma amateur ya con 72 años y no puedo dejar de emocionarme cuando escucho a Piaf cantar. Que mujer, que Alma!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have always loved Edith Piaf for her unique voice but when I saw this film I also fell in love with Marion Cotillard because she could embody Edith's sadness, love and loneliness at the same time, sometimes she didn't need to speak only with her eyes and face expressions. I'm sure the scene when she's told Marcel is dead is one of the most difficult scene for any actor or actress cause she went to happiness and laughing to sadness and tears so fast, it's the scene that has made me cry the most. I'd like to think whenever Edith Piaf is she's happy for the homage to her memory this film represents and also with Marion Cotillard who was born to play this role, that's why she won every film contest she attended. But I think this film should also deserved the Oscar as the best film of the year!!!!!
Mirabel Rose it’s entirely ignorant to say that she’s a bad actress, overrated? Maybe, but not bad, she is one of the best artists in Hollywood, and her performance in Sophie’s Choice is truly one of the best
This may seem sinical and cruel, but I don’t think that Marion Cotillard can ever improve on her performance as Edith Piaf. As many have said before, she didn’t act the role she lived it, she was Edith Piaf.
Brilliant movie! Edith Piaf's incredible voice captivated me as a little girl,much later learning of her life story explained the strength, courage and determination heard within that voice.'No Regrets' (minute 4.30) Thank you 'Little Sparrow'. Marion Cottillard a stunning performance.
After seeing this clip and reading online about Edith Piaf, I had to buy the DVD of this film.....OMG this is one of THE FINEST performances ever given on film. Marion later said on the Graham Norton show that it took her awhile to get out of that role because she put so much if herself into it...and it shows on film. Marion literally BECOMES Edith Piaf. She deserved that Oscar...now Hollywood needs to find more great films for Marion to star in
Joel, I know you hear this word used in just this manner every day, many times a day. But just so you know, in case you actually never learned the meaning of the word "literally", I am going to explain it to you. The word literally is a signifier for any words which one might otherwise imagine were "figurative". "It's raining cats and dogs" is a FIGURE of speech, which all people recognize as not being in fact, LITERAL. I actually heard a TV weatherman say on air several years ago that "In Los Angeles today it has been literally raining cats and dogs". If his choice of the word "literal" had been correct, it would have necessitated one finding layers of dead cats and dogs lying in the streets of LA, due to the very unusual "rainfall". SOMETIMES, though not at all frequently, it is possible to hear an expression which sounds like a very common "figure of speech", which, in a rather unusual coincidence is found to also be literally, the case, and not merely the figure of speech. Ex: "Damn, I'm literally starving to death!" if heard on the streets of America would never prompt one to imagine that the person has been deprived food for days at a time, never mind for a week, or more. It's a FIGURE OF SPEECH, which usage is described as speaking "figuratively" and used daily in order to be dramatic. But it is also very possible that an American departing his doctor's office could tell his friend picking him up that "Damn, I'm literally starving to death"! and not merely be suggesting they stop and have lunch when possible. His doctor has just informed him that he has an unusual malady whereby his body is no longer metabolizing his food, and his body tissue is decomposing...he is starving to death! At this "opportune" moment the "starving" man might cleverly say to his unsuspecting friend, "Damn, I'm literally starving to death" and be using the word appropriately. The word "literally" is not used unless signifying that someone, at this moment, is not merely speaking FIGURATIVELY, as in "FIGURE of speech". Popular figures of speech: *"I'm starving", or even "I'm starving to death"! Only said "literally" in the poorest third world nations, today....or otherwise by persons with metabolic/digestive maladies needing a good looking into! *"My heart is breaking" or anything concerning a "broken heart". "He literally broke her heart" is dramatic, but probably never truthfully said in history, unless there was something very diabolical, and "anatomically disruptive" involved. As perhaps, among the Aztecs, in some of their sacrificial rituals *He's busting my balls"- Always recognized as figurative, rather than literal, unless it's a street fight involving kicking, and the groin area. So....Marion Cotillard, though giving a truly magnificent performance, as good as ANY I have ever seen, could not possibly have LITERALLY, BECOME Edith Piaf who has been dead and buried since 1963. In fact, no actor in history has ever LITERALLY, BECOME another person, though that FIGURE OF SPEECH is heard applied to virtually every acting performance which is being touted each year to be among the award winners. In this improper use it merely magnifies one's expression to greater heights, while it totally mutilates the true meaning of the word. It is an improper use of the word, and used (as said earlier) by almost anyone now, to "que" the listener to prepare to hear something REALLY big. REALLY important, REALLY astonishing etc. Just for the speaker to appear more dramatic, and interesting a speaker! With popular use it has unfortunately come to mean NOTHING AT ALL! As in the case of the friend starving to death, it is a use which occurs properly, only very infrequently, and therefore, a little interestingly. It is a novelty, and therefore a little fun to hear occasionally. NOT EVERY DAY, AND IN EVERY OTHER SENTENCE as is the common improper case, today. So, now you should know what the word really means. Best of luck to you.
@@emmettwalz Thank for for the correction. Perhaps I should have omitted the word 'literally' and left the sentence just say 'Marion BECOMES Edith Piaf'
One of the best movies I have ever seen and THE greatest performance by an actress. Heart-stopping, exquisite, beautiful. If Cotillard did nothing else but this one movie, she would still be remembered as one of the greatest actresses of her generation.
I guess choosing this part was the hardest thing to make, because of the whole movie was absolutely breathtaking, you have to be crazy not to love this movie and the best part, Marion.
I whole heartedly agree with you. As a boy in my teens with all my teen angst and feelings of being misunderstood, for me the voice of Piaf was my balm. I so appreciate the movie of her story. Thanks for the upload!!
O trecho deste filme intitula-se Piaf. Foi um bate e volta muito significativo. Elle dis: Amée pour toujour! Amée! Oui Piaf est la personalité de l'amour! Elle non regrette pas rien jamais! J'adore c'est musique! Superbe...Marveilleuse!
It is one scene with the whole movie and an entire life collaged... very powerful, but so is the scene where she performs her break through performance. It was a brilliant directorial decision, after all the drama of her preparation to have a sequence of her performance shot in silence with just a soft instrumental sound track. The exterior of life is always so noisy and dramatic, the deep interior observes in a silent calm.
La grande Française Edith Piaf vit toujours dans le cœur des Français pour la liberté, l'unité et la fraternité, comme l'ont fait avant Jeanne d'Arc, Victor Hugo, Émilie Zola et Jules Verne.🌺🌺🌺🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

Best performance in the history of cinema. Streep is right there as well in Sophie’s Choice.
I really habe to thank my french teacher for showing me this movie because it truly changed me life.
After seeing this clip and reading online about Edith Piaf, I had to buy the DVD of this film.....OMG this is one of THE FINEST performances ever given on film. Marion later said on the Graham Norton show that it took her awhile to get out of that role because she put so much if herself into it...and it shows on film. Marion literally BECOMES Edith Piaf. She deserved that Oscar...now Hollywood needs to find more great films for Marion to star in
Joel, I know you hear this word used in just this manner every day, many times a day. But just so you know, in case you actually never learned the meaning of the word "literally", I am going to explain it to you. The word literally is a signifier for any words which one might otherwise imagine were "figurative". "It's raining cats and dogs" is a FIGURE of speech, which all people recognize as not being in fact, LITERAL. I actually heard a TV weatherman say on air several years ago that "In Los Angeles today it has been literally raining cats and dogs". If his choice of the word "literal" had been correct, it would have necessitated one finding layers of dead cats and dogs lying in the streets of LA, due to the very unusual "rainfall". SOMETIMES, though not at all frequently, it is possible to hear an expression which sounds like a very common "figure of speech", which, in a rather unusual coincidence is found to also be literally, the case, and not merely the figure of speech. Ex: "Damn, I'm literally starving to death!" if heard on the streets of America would never prompt one to imagine that the person has been deprived food for days at a time, never mind for a week, or more. It's a FIGURE OF SPEECH, which usage is described as speaking "figuratively" and used daily in order to be dramatic. But it is also very possible that an American departing his doctor's office could tell his friend picking him up that "Damn, I'm literally starving to death"! and not merely be suggesting they stop and have lunch when possible. His doctor has just informed him that he has an unusual malady whereby his body is no longer metabolizing his food, and his body tissue is decomposing...he is starving to death! At this "opportune" moment the "starving" man might cleverly say to his unsuspecting friend, "Damn, I'm literally starving to death" and be using the word appropriately. The word "literally" is not used unless signifying that someone, at this moment, is not merely speaking FIGURATIVELY, as in "FIGURE of speech".
Popular figures of speech:
*"I'm starving", or even "I'm starving to death"! Only said "literally" in the poorest third world nations, today....or otherwise by persons with metabolic/digestive maladies needing a good looking into!
*"My heart is breaking" or anything concerning a "broken heart". "He literally broke her heart" is dramatic, but probably never truthfully said in history, unless there was something very diabolical, and "anatomically disruptive" involved. As perhaps, among the Aztecs, in some of their sacrificial rituals
*He's busting my balls"- Always recognized as figurative, rather than literal, unless it's a street fight involving kicking, and the groin area.
So....Marion Cotillard, though giving a truly magnificent performance, as good as ANY I have ever seen, could not possibly have LITERALLY, BECOME Edith Piaf who has been dead and buried since 1963. In fact, no actor in history has ever LITERALLY, BECOME another person, though that FIGURE OF SPEECH is heard applied to virtually every acting performance which is being touted each year to be among the award winners. In this improper use it merely magnifies one's expression to greater heights, while it totally mutilates the true meaning of the word. It is an improper use of the word, and used (as said earlier) by almost anyone now, to "que" the listener to prepare to hear something REALLY big. REALLY important, REALLY astonishing etc. Just for the speaker to appear more dramatic, and interesting a speaker! With popular use it has unfortunately come to mean NOTHING AT ALL! As in the case of the friend starving to death, it is a use which occurs properly, only very infrequently, and therefore, a little interestingly. It is a novelty, and therefore a little fun to hear occasionally. NOT EVERY DAY, AND IN EVERY OTHER SENTENCE as is the common improper case, today. So, now you should know what the word really means. Best of luck to you.
@@emmettwalz Thank for for the correction. Perhaps I should have omitted the word 'literally' and left the sentence just say 'Marion BECOMES Edith Piaf'
Amen! After watching the movie, I turned to my friend and said, "And the Oscar goes to..." Brilliant. Sublime. Blown away!
I agree this is the best part. I'm a knitter. He'll I'm knitting now so when she says that last line I just want to cry lol
One of the best movies I have ever seen and THE greatest performance by an actress. Heart-stopping, exquisite, beautiful. If Cotillard did nothing else but this one movie, she would still be remembered as one of the greatest actresses of her generation.
One of my favorite songs. What a moving performance.
I never knew the lyrics because they were in French, but seeing the subtitles in English....wow, what a profound song.
Goosebumps! Who else got them?
Sublime, maravilloso!!!!!
I guess choosing this part was the hardest thing to make, because of the whole movie was absolutely breathtaking, you have to be crazy not to love this movie and the best part, Marion.
Beautiful... thank you for sharing... Marion is Flawless on this performance
that oscar was well deserved. marion cotillard did an amazing amazing job
Such a tragedic life... Marion Cotillard deserved the Oscar. She was amazing. Such a talented wonderful mademoiselle.
I hadn't even seen the entire movie, when I saw the end I teared up.
Such beautiful souls never die.
Oscars have been given to great performances, but a few have achieved.and as it's 2023 ..the G.O.A.T.xxx
I haven't seen this but now I definitely need too!
I whole heartedly agree with you. As a boy in my teens with all my teen angst and feelings of being misunderstood, for me the voice of Piaf was my balm. I so appreciate the movie of her story. Thanks for the upload!!
really amazing.
marion cotillard is the best actress!
Marion Cotillard 💜💜💜
O trecho deste filme intitula-se Piaf. Foi um bate e volta muito significativo. Elle dis: Amée pour toujour! Amée! Oui Piaf est la personalité de l'amour! Elle non regrette pas rien jamais! J'adore c'est musique! Superbe...Marveilleuse!
I almost cried watching this for the first time. This scene still gets me.
Me too.....me too....
one of the best actress on her generation. im happy she won an Oscar :)
marion cotillard is a perfect, flawless actress.
I got goosebumps after watching this scene... She is such a good actress
Edith la meilleure ❤️❤️😢 Edith the best ♥️♥️😢
The little smile in her deathbed is an incredible sad and and happy moment at the same time, a 10/10 performance by Marion.
It is one scene with the whole movie and an entire life collaged... very powerful, but so is the scene where she performs her break through performance. It was a brilliant directorial decision, after all the drama of her preparation to have a sequence of her performance shot in silence with just a soft instrumental sound track. The exterior of life is always so noisy and dramatic, the deep interior observes in a silent calm.
Marion est sublime comme madame et comme actress........tres,tres,jolie!
Thank you for your voice,Edith
La grande Française Edith Piaf vit toujours dans le cœur des Français pour la liberté, l'unité et la fraternité, comme l'ont fait avant Jeanne d'Arc, Victor Hugo, Émilie Zola et Jules Verne.🌺🌺🌺🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Magnifique ! Du grand cinéma populaire, de grosses larmes ! 😢
marion was magnificent. she didn't act this, she became.
Que votre âme repose en paix , la belle Edith 💖
