Sorry if I offended anyone other then Marion Cotillard herself, but the floor was most assuredly slippery near the podium, but I have no idea how or when it happened. I was only trying to adorn a boring awards show with a bit of scandalous humor, referring to the belief that Edith Piaf herself actullay urinated on stage during a performance. Seeing people slip and slide towards the podium was a bit suspensful in fear that someone would really hurt themselves. Fortunately that did not happen, but it was one of those little things that kept me watching those odd little details as there was not much else commanding my attention! I thought perhaps some comic genious would seize the moment and add some spice to the show using the slippery spot as a prop, but no such luck. In regard to LA VIE EN ROSE, I was rivited by Cotillard's performance enhanced by hours of hair and makeup work, but was in no way pleased with the films overall portrayal of Piaf herself. It made her seem like real trash and left out anything redeeming she did for others in her short life. I do however understand that this was more a story about love and passion than an accurate bio of her life. Sad as her life was, the film did not paint her in a good light in my eyes, but I did find the film entertaining and left with a tear in my eye at the end.
