I stumbled upon this video of Marion Cotillard while perusing The Debonaire today. Marion Cotillard and I look similar in a way that makes it feel sort of surreal to watch this. Not like, Oh mon dieu, I look exactly like this mega-gorgeous film star, but like we could be cousins, or sisters or something. She smiles with her mouth closed and gets sort of squinty in the same way I do. So, in what seems to be a form of narcissism, I completely adore her.
I especially love the way she mixes up "ed" and "ing" endings, so she calls herself "confusing" rather than "confused." It makes me wonder what kind of mistakes I make in French, without even noticing. I hope that when (not if) I next go to France and make new French friends they find my linguistic missteps at least a little bit charming.
And a little clip of her in French (on filmmaking):
It's funny how people's voices change depending on the language they're speaking. Et j'adore ça aussi.

It's funny, I saw a similarity but it wasn't until the last frame when I suddenly saw YOU there. And then it was scary similar. And you are gorgeous.
Thanks, daddio.
