Marion Cotillard: Oscar Buzz for 'Rust & Bone'

Marion Cotillard carries her almost 2-year-old son, Marcel, into her hotel on Wednesday (May 30) in NYC.

The 36-year-old French actress bumped into writer/director David Lynch outside and gave him a hug and kiss on the cheek before parting ways.

Marion is in the States after premiering her new movie, Rust & Bone, at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival – a role that’s already earning her Oscar buzz.

“Cotillard, already an Oscar winner for La Vie en Rose, turns the sort of unvarnished, honest performance – look, ma, no makeup! – that often results in Oscar attention,” THR notes.
