A little note

When I watched the new version of "Far From the Madness", I noticed that Belgian actor Matthias Schoenaert is a tough guy on the screen. Compared to playing with Carey Mulligan, Marion Cotillard matches him better in both image and connotation. So the on-screen couple on Rust and Bone looked very harmonious.

The films of Marion Cotillard who are more impressed are "Two Little No Guess" and "Inception". It was really amazing in "Inception", and once made me think she was a vase-type actress. But Rust and Bone completely changed my mind. In fact, there is no particularly fascinating plot in this film. It is roughly how men and women in the bottom life who have encountered setbacks in life meet, support, grow, and get out of the predicament. Therefore, the skills of the two protagonists are more tested, especially the base of the film is the delicate, slow and restrained French.
The test for Marion Cotillard was that she played a disabled man with amputated limbs. This includes the mental transformation from a healthy person to a disabled person, and also has to coordinate the body. In view of the special effects in the amputation part of this film, she behaves naturally from spirit to body. This is indeed the cultivation of a good actor. .
