Celebrity Quote Of The Day: Marion Cotillard Knows
OSCAR-winning Marion Cotillard is the 32-year-old French winner of a Bafta, Golden Globe and a César for her performance as singer Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose.
Says she: “I think we’re lied to about a number of things.” Cotillard is speaking of the two passenger jets flown into the World Trade Centre on September 11 2002.
Says she: “We see other towers of the same kind being hit by planes, are they burned? There was a tower, I believe it was in Spain, which burned for 24 hours. It never collapsed. None of these towers collapsed. And there [New York], in a few minutes, the whole thing collapsed.”
Adding: “Did a man really walk on the moon? I saw plenty of documentaries on it, and I really wondered. And in any case I don’t believe all they tell me, that’s for sure.”
Indeed.
The Anorak finds it hard to believe that you can:
Fly to New York from London in seven hours in a heavy metal object
Make a direct phone call on a mobile phone from Australia to Paris for very little money
See pictures of the surface of Mars relayed by the Explorer Spirit probe
Have enough time to listen to and read the thousands of statements for those who watched the 9/11 horror unfold
Use email via the Internet
Believe Cotillard will work much in Hollywood…
And many, many more unbelievable things…

Quite a lot of French people I’ve met are believers in the 9/11 conspiracy theories - I think it fits in with their deep loathing (secret adoration) of the United States esp over the Iraq War (although since they sunk the Rainbow Warrior and keep testing Nuclear Bombs and earned a fortune trading with Saddam, as a Nation, they can’t really claim the moral high-ground).
I watched a documentary about the Iraq war when I was in Paris and the end titles had a song, the lyrics of which seemed to be entirely ‘Bush, fuck you’ - which I thought was to the point.

There are more things in heaven and earth Horatio….
Come on i gave up the evil weed, and NO ONE would believe I could..
Do you think the US will ever forget being attacked on home soil? But what was the ratio of movies over the Blitz compared to Twin Towers?

Oh absolutely. That moonwalk thing? My feeling is that it was an all time knobble engineered by the cartoonists at Disney who were on their coffee break in the hope that 30 years after the date, they could come out with Toy Story and make megabucks marketing a little robot called Buzz Lightyear (have I got my studios and dolls right, btw?).
She’ll be a goddess in Hollywood, no doubt about it. Once everyone in America who was effected by the Twin Towers forgets what she’s been yammering on about. Which’ll probably be shortly after they’ve forgotten those comments made by Mel Gibson a couple of years ago.
