After nearly 2 years (22 months) I was finally starting to get bored with the previous layout – however gorgeous it was. So Mel from Vintage Dreams designed the new look for the main site, the gallery & the video archive with pictures from the recent Grazia feature. Also a big thank you to Laura for her help with the video templates. I hope there aren’t any bugs – otherwise let me know.

I also started working on updating the information pages – while I’m by no means done yet, you can check out the progress over the coming weeks. In the meantime, how do you like the new look?

After nearly 1.5 years Magnifique Marion Cotillard has a new look! Not only do we have a fantastic layout for the main site, Mycah from Purple Haze Inc. created also matching looks for our second domain marion-media.org where you can find the extensive Photo Gallery and Video Archive as well as for our Twitter Page. I’m so excited about the results and hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Thank you for leaving your comments.

The pictures for the layout are from the 2009 Madame Figaro shoot and in my opinion showcase the different aspects of Marion’s personality perfectly! The site should look fine in all browsers though the best result will be when using Firefox!

Today I finished what I set out to do over a year ago! I transferred all video clips from the old to the new video archive – bringing the total count in the new archive to 250. There’s nothing really new except 2 videos: Cinema.nl – Interview and CBS News – 2007/06/17.

To simplify the url to the gallery now that the old video archive has become redundant I moved the whole gallery installation to the root of marion-media.org. All links to the gallery here on the main site have been successfully updated! Except those in the old section of the site which are still pointing to the very first gallery installation. In due time, they too, should get updated.

3 years after getting international recognition when ‘La Vie en Rose‘ celebrated its world premiere at the Berlin Film Festival, Marion Cotillard could actually come back to Germany. Yesterday, the festival announced their line-up for the “Berlin Special” Gala screenings at the upcoming 60th Berlin International Film Festival. ‘Nine‘ is one of them – and it will actually be the festival’s Birthday Special screening ahead of its theatrical release in Germany. Upon inquiry by Welt Online they could not yet confirm any of the star’s appearances, though. Let’s hope Marion will attend!

On a sidenote, our site has been listed on The Fan Carpt and please stay tuned for our in-depth coverage of Marion’s Critics Choice and Golden Globe Award appearances. Thank you for your patience

You may have noticed in the last post that the audio clips section – which used to be in the old video archive – are back! I continued working on it today and now everything I had on the computer is up on the site! So if you come across more audio interviews with Marion – especially in English – please let me know!

After over 7 months a new layout was more than needed. The talented Natalie (who already designed the header for our second site layout) designed this timeless and elegant layout based on the Paris Lady Dior Print Campaign a while ago and finally I got round to code it for the site. I hope you are as excited as I am about the new look!

The site looks perfect in a Firefox browser but should work fine with others too. If you encounter problems though please let me know, thanks!

Additionally to the new layout the sidebar has (finally) been updated with all the new Marion Cotillard projects and some important dates for the upcoming 2 months!

I’ve installed a new Video Archive. Huge thank you goes to my wonderful host Fan-Sites.org, who’s hosting the media part of the website! I hope you’ll love the fact that you’ll be able to directly play the videos instead of having to download & unzip them first as much as I! Over the coming days the old archive will be transferred to the new one.

I’ve also taken the opportunity to some videos of Marion Cotillard during the recent Oscars. Thanks Mariana for recording one of the red carpet interviews!

[edit March 7:] I’ve enabled user registration so that rating and commenting of the pictures work. Let’s see how long we can escape the spam, otherwise I’ll have to disable it again. Have fun!

Hi all, my name is Sara Amelia and I’m the new co-web at Magnifique Marion Cotillard. Maria has been kind enough to offer me a position here on the site. I’ve loved Marion for a while now and truely love cannot wait to contribute to the site.
