Marion Meets Cesar

France's film industry gave its coveted Cesar award for best actress to Oscar hopeful Marion Cotillard for her portrayal of songstress Edith Piaf in "La Mome" (La Vie en Rose).
Cotillard was a favorite going into Friday's Cesar competition, comparable to the Academy Awards, after critics said she captured the soul of France's queen of song in the film by Olivier Dahan.
She is in contention for an Oscar in Sunday's Academy Awards for her performance.
The Cesar was her second award this month. Cotillard was honored as best actress by the British Academy Film Awards. She also won a Golden Globe for best actress in a comedy or musical.

Ms. Cotillard can be seen in the March 2008 edition of Vanity Fair where she reenacts Alfred Hitchcock's famous shower scene from the classic 'Psycho' (above).
