This article is from last month about Marion’s Little White Lies co star and friend, Jean Dujardin who stars in The Artist. This is what Marion had to say about him:

Dujardin is just breaking through in the USA, but in France, he’s a celebrity. And for good reason, his friends say.

“He’s inventive,” says Oscar winner Marion Cotillard, Dujardin’s friend and co-star in 2010′s Little White Lies. “He is eager to explore many different things, and he is comfortable in every genre. He has no fear. He has the aura of an icon, and at the same time, he is very close to people.”

Marion’s latest film, Rust and Bones has been picked up by Sony Pictures Classic.

Sony Pictures Classics has acquired North American, Latin American and Eastern European rights to Jacques Audiard’s romance-suspenser “Rust & Bone,” which recently wrapped production.

“Rust” stars Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenarts and is produced by Pascal Caucheteux. The film was co-written by Audiard and Thomas Bidegain — who teamed on 2009′s “A Prophet” — and adapted from the book of short stories by Craig Davidson.

Pic was budgeted at $22 million, making it one of the biggest films coming out of France last year. Celine Sallette (“House of Tolerance”) and Bouli Lanners (“Nothing to Declare”) co-star.

“A Prophet” took the Cannes Festival’s Special Jury Prize in 2009. Hengameh Panahi’s Celluloid Dreams, which sold and co-produced “A Prophet,” sold “Rust & Bone” to Sony Classics.

Caucheteux’s credits include Audiard’s “The Beat That My Heart Skipped” and “A Prophet,” as well as “Of Gods and Men” and “Assault on Precinct 13.”

UGC is distribbing in France. In pre-sales, “Rust” has been licensed to Studiocanal for the U.K,, Bim Distribuzione for Italy and Lumiere for the Benelux territories.
