James Gray, a Cannes favourite, screened his highly anticipated The Immigrant today at the festival. The reviews I’ve read have been medium to good. Once again, Gray is working with his muse, Joaquin Phoenix. They say however that he may have found a new one in Marion Cotillard. Her performance is generating some serious buzz. Full Story

It’s been two years since Pitt Porn in Cannes. I miss them so much. I miss the way Brad walked with the cast up the steps and then came back down to pick up the Jolie, like King and Queen, blessing the public. Not even Justin Timberlake dared to do that with his wife. In the absence of Brange though, if Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet are there, I will manage just fine. Full Story

Oh! I mean I was hoping for a few shots together on the red carpet, and maybe some handholding, but this is a MEGA bonus! Check out Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet, director, at the Blood Ties photo call in Cannes today. As you can see, their relationship is right. More than right. And the French press must have been going mad with it. Full Story

Blue seems to be the sartorial theme for Berenice Bejo in Cannes. Click here to see the outfit she wore to the photo call earlier today. And here she is in a gorgeous blue blazer over white tulle at the Palais for the premiere of Le Passe tonight. Full Story

Could Iman have pulled off Anna Wintour’s floral Chanel at the MET Gala on Monday? How is what you’re wearing Punk, Iman? It’s not. I married David Bowie. If you’ve not seen this yet, you’re about to experience a love explosion. It’s Bowie’s video for The Next Day, directed by Floria Sigismundi, who also directed his The Stars video. Full Story

Before we get into the romance... The dreaded strapless ball gown, you know? It’s SO deflating. She might say she’s not a fashion girl, but when you’re signed to Dior, you kind of ARE a fashion girl, aren’t you? Both Dior girls were mega underwhelming at the MET Gala. A slight edge to Marion Cotillard, I guess, but it’s far from interesting, with not even a hint of punk. Full Story

Marion Cotillard is not nominated for an Oscar. It ends for her at the BAFTAs. No more award season Marion. So she wore a bright yellow Dior on her final stop. It’s beautiful. It looks like a calla lily, my favourite flower. As for that sheer piece on the side… Reminds me of Jennifer Lawrence’s Dior at the SAGs; it’s the same collection. Full Story

I am still not over this flu. It’ll be ok for a few hours and then it’ll slide back to sucking all over again. And it’s turned me into a mouth-breather so that’s attractive. Especially in combination with the smell that’s wafting around me, a combination of head sweat and sleep musk. Full Story

I don’t blame you, dude. I know you’re busy, you have a lot going on, and you have a whole lot of best-dressed lists to land on before February 24th. I don’t want you think I blame you. But what in the holy hell is up with wearing orange dresses on the carpet that haven’t been camera-tested? In photos, the dress comes off as something I can mostly only describe as burnt coral. Full Story

You know I love Hushpuppy. I've been writing about Beasts Of The Southern Wild for months. It totally deserved to be included in the Best Picture category. Dwight Henry should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actor. But as much as I enjoyed her, I don't know if 9 year old Quvenzhane Wallis is one of the 5 Best Actresses, and over Marion Cotillard in Rust & Bone? I can't. Full Story

Marion Cotillard was at the Gucci Paris Masters today. And they match...very Frenchly! As you can see, Marcel is an exception to my Celebrity Baby Theory.  Two weeks ago, Marion was considered #2 in the Best Actress race behind Jennifer Lawrence. Full Story

The Hollywood Reporter has posted its video/transcript of the 2012 Actress Roundtable – 7 women were invited (Anne Hathaway, Amy Adams, Sally Field, Naomi Watts, Rachel Weisz, Helen Hunt and Marion Cotillard), but as we know only 5 will be nominated, and there’s no guarantee it will be 5 exclusively from this group. Full Story

According to most experts who are called on to predict these things, Jennifer Lawrence, right now, early in the Oscar race, is the frontrunner to win the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook. (I keep having to remind myself to remove the “The” before the title. Full Story

10 films, 10 days, 8 parties, over four thousand words written and the Toronto International Film Festival is finally over. I am writing to you all from Los Angeles where I will spend the next week hibernating. Here’s something some of you may not know: I don’t party; I mean, I do, but rarely. Full Story
