Thanks for posting the full list.
Marion Cotillard also won the French Oscar on Saturday night("Les Césars") for the same role. Interestingly, her film about Piaf doesn't have "La Vie en Rose" as its original French title though one would hardly know. The film is called "La Môme" in France, which was one of Piaf's nicknames. Now that might have been a good trivia question...

Hi Colin,
Yes, it would have been a great trivia question!
Why did they change the name of the movie in France, and what does the French name mean? We, in English speaking Canada, are only good at translating the wrong side of cereal boxes, slumped over our cornflakes in this bilingual country.

Someone told me that the movie, "Free Willy," went by a different name in the UK for fairly obvious reasons. I think they may have been kidding with me.

The win by Cotillard last night, took everyone by surprise, herself included.
I hadn't realised I had seen her in "Big Fish" and "A Good Year," until I looked her name up this morning.

Canada got totally shut out, last night.
I was rooting for Ellen Page of Nova Scotia to win Best Actress for "Juno". It's one of the best films I have seen all year. However, I was pleased to see American, Diablo Cody win best original screenplay for that film, which is essentially Canadian. Juno has some of the funniest lines I've heard in a long time.

I was glad to see Javier Bardem win Best Supporting Actor for, "No Country for Old Men." His portrayal of Anton Chigurh, a hitman, with a cattle gun as his weapon of choice, in a story about a drug deal gone wrong, was absolutely chilling. He made the kidnappers in "Fargo," a previous Coen brothers' success, look like a couple of favourite, benevolent uncles.

Anyway, for more on last night's ceremony, and poor Canada's crushed Oscar dreams, check this out. It's quite an amusing article.
No Country for Gold Men: Reflecting on Canuck Losses

I assume that "La Môme" translates to "The Sparrow", Piaf's best-known (in the US) nickname. If so, it is a better title in France than the title of one of her songs.

dg, there were Free Willy jokes here, too.

By the way, I don't see Canada's results as losses. How many Canadian films have even gotten nominations in the past? Slowly, the Oscars are taking notice of the rest of the world, and it's about time.

Later edit -

I see was wrong about "La Môme". I still don't know what it means, but imdb.com just reminded me that Piaf's last name itself means Sparrow.

I was about 20 the first time I heard a recording of Piaf. I didn't understand French (and still don't), but I understood the beautiful pain about which she sang. I almost cried listening to that voice. To those in the US who have never heard her, I apologize for being unable to name a comparable US female singer. I don't think there are or were any.

It's a colloquial, slang, word for a young woman, like 'bird' in British or 'chick' in American.It's also used for a child, as we might use 'kid'.

"Môme" is a colloquial though totally acceptable word (i.e. it's not vulgar in any way) that translates as "kid"; it's also used, largely but not solely, by adolescents to refer to a girl, usually but not always attractive. There's little derogatory sense even here, and perhaps it's broadly the equivalent of the North American word "chick", when it was used in a similar context. (Aside: do people still say "chick" nowadays?!) It most freqently means "kid" nonetheless, albeit "kid" when used affectionately, e.g "She's a nice kid".
Anyway, the great Edith Piaf was known as "la môme" because she looked so thin and young when she started out, and was only about I m 45 cm tall (4ft 8 or 9.)She was introduced as such on stage when she was first discovered in Paris - "La Môme Piaf - a self made and self destroyed singing genius.
Incidentally, the successul song by Juliette Gréco called "Jolie Môme" ahs nothing to do with Edith Piaf. It's a good tune though.

Aw Fred! You beat me to it by five minutes!

Thanks everyone. Has anybody seen "La Vie en Rose"? Would you recommend it?

Btw, although "No Country for Old Men" is very violent, it's well worth the price of a ticket.

'Here's looking at you, kid'. See, Americans use it of a woman, too !

Fred, it seems like yesterday doesn't it? But time goes by, and that was actually over 60 years ago. I'm not sure if Americans still say it. Sounds kind of cheesy to me.

It was?

Surely not: I've got it on Betamax

Hahah, Fred. Never mind, we'll always have Colin in Paris.



( sorry, couldn't resist )

Q: What did the paparazzi say after Britney and Lindsay successfully completed rehab and started living normal lives?

A: We'll always have Paris.
