    While Moana Films and Windy Production are big names in the film industry of France, Marion Cotillard is their biggest and most beloved star of the 21st century. The 43-year-old beauty is now the highest paid French actress in the past century. She has been in many famous projects since her very first step into the capital of films. After a noticeable supporting role in Big Fish by Tim Burton (2003),  she has had her big break in A Very Long Engagement (2004). And the year 2007 marked a glorious time in the beauty’s career with her stunning performance in La Vie en Rose. Turning herself in to the famous singer Édith Piaf, Cotillard spent a whole year being lavished with awards after awards, from BAFTA, César, to Golden Globe and the Oscar for Best Female Lead.
