All the lights seem green for the actress from Children’s Games who has a string of successes and arouses the admiration of his peers. His current news? A docudrama by Mona Achache, where the actress plays the director’s mother, who was abused on several occasions. Writer and photographer, the filmmaker’s mother committed suicide in 2016, leaving behind thousands of photos, letters and audio recordings. Enough to make her daughter want to follow in her mother’s footsteps, to understand who she was through the face of her actress.
A strange exercise, which we imagine to be exciting and destabilizing, for Guillaume Canet’s partner. The one she plays on screen is Carole Achache, daughter of the writer Monique Lange, and victim of abuse, notably by the writer Jean Genet. A difficult, complex role, as the Oscar-winning actress has become accustomed to interpreting. And her performance seems to have convinced, more than that, even dazzled, if we are to believe the testimony of Laura Smet on social networks. This Friday, November 24, the daughter of Johnny Hallyday and Nathalie Baye did not hide his admiration for the interpretation of Marion Cotillard and the production of Mona Achache.

“Since her beginnings, Marion Cotillard transports me, shakes me and fascinates me, once again in the nugget of the very great Mona Achache Little Girl Bluea film so authentic, strange and innovative in the pursuit of a painful dream, that’s why I love cinema so much, thank you for giving us these emotions, thank you to Marion Cotillard, because my heart is full tonight”delivered Laura Smet without detour on Instagram, in the caption under his publication of the film poster. On the other side of the Atlantic, it is another emblematic actor who also showed all the admiration he has for the woman with whom he shared the poster for Inception. “Marion is wonderful. She is part of this legacy of great actresses that we don’t see much anymore. She is perfect, in life and on screen”declared Leonardo DiCaprio.
