Allocine is also a source here, that's fucking awesome. Seems there are only two french actresses well known in the states. More or less feel like Tahar Rahim et Marion Cotillard are not quite a match in a film.

I am very happy for Miss Bejo, i think she can do something very good here. She can handle it but i also think when Miss Cotillard is detached from a project like this, it looses a lot of it's appeal.

Cant wait for the film. Big fan of Asghar Farhadi he's really a revelation. I hope the script will be brilliant & I know Berenice Bejo will step up to the challenge. However I would of loved for Marion to be in there for star power :/

NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Whut. Berenice does NOT hold a candle to Marion. I don't even like Marion all that much, but it's like Blake Lively replacing Jennifer Lawrence.

Was there really no better unknown waiting in the wings?

it's a disappointment for me, Cotillard is much better as an actress.

Berenice was okay-ish in The Artist…but I've seen her work in France and she's more like Gwenyth Paltrow in a romcom quality. Maybe thats what this film wants?

Yes Bejo is talented but is hardly a fitting replacement for Cotillard. Then again, it's hard to replace one of the best and most beautiful actresses on the planet.
