Quiet is kept, we got love for classy ladies here at Complex. Marion Cotillard is just such a dame. She won an Oscar for her role in La Vie en Rose a couple years back, but she's no serious-actress-that's-only-in-it-for-the-art one trick pony—she's also fine as hell! (Yeah, we said we like 'em classy, not that we were classy ourselves.)
The highly anticipated psychological thriller Inception is hitting theaters tomorrow and the sexy-yet-classy Cotillard is gaining Oscar buzz again as she stars along Leonardo DiCaprio. We haven't the foggiest idea what the flick is about, but we'll check it out nonetheless in the hopes that amidst all the minds getting blown, we can see her back getting blown out as well. And even if we can't unspool Inception's plot, we know sexy when we see it, as you'll see with our collection of Marion Cotillard's hottest role. Oui, oui, y'all!
10. PUBLIC ENEMIES (2009)
Character: Billie Frechette
Nude? No
Hottest Scene: Sitting in a restaurant looking good enough for famed bank robber John Dillinger (Johnny Depp) to buy her a fur coat without even knowing her. It ain't trickin' if you got it!
Complex says: Marion displays the finest of elegance in her 1930s lady-gear. Depression our ass—there's a resurgence in our pants!

9. INNOCENCE (2004)
Character: Mademoiselle Eva
Nude? No
Hottest Scene: When she's teaching ballet class.
Complex says: The film, about a mysterious boarding school for young girls, is pretty creepy to watch, but Marion's cans look great in a leotard. Who's classy NOW, huh?!?

8. A GOOD YEAR (2006)
Character: Fanny Chenal
Nude? No
Hottest Scene: Giving Russell Crowe a hard time in a shit-filled pool.
Complex says: Ridley Scott x Russell Crowe sounded cool until we learned this flick was on some schmaltzy love-over-money shit. Likes we said, though, we likes Marion in just 'bout everything.

7. LA BOITE NOIR (2005)
Character: Isabelle Kruger/Alice

Hottest Scene: Sex scene wherein she speaks lots and lots of French that we can't understand.

4. NINE (2009)
Character: Luisa Contini
Nude? No

3. PRETTY THINGS (2001)
Character: Marie/Lucie
Nude? Yes
Hottest Scene: When she's naked. Buck-ass naked!

Character: Sophie Kowalsky
Nude? Yes
Hottest Scene: When her right boob peeks out to say hi to us during a sex scene.
