I didn't say she was merely lip-synching. Cotilard was fine, I was just bored with everything that didn't involve singing (all of which was lip synched, whether to Piaf or Aigrot).
Currently I've seen four of the five nominees for Best Actress (and if I have time I will see Julie Christie in
Away from Her tonight) and I'd put her as the best among the other nominees, that's just not a terribly high bar this year. Laura Linney was fine but there was nothing special about
The Savages; Ellen Page was good in
Juno; maybe Blanchett was good in
Queen Elizabeth and just tainted by the overall stink of the movie so I'm not seeing it.
