The Cotillard household in Loiret, Paris, has been described as a 'bustling, creative household.' Not very surprising, this.
Claude Cotillard, a former mime, continues to be an actor, director and teacher, while his wife Niseema Theillaud also teaches drama and acts. Their identical twin sons Quentin and Guillaume continue with the family's arty legacy, being a sculptor and a writer respectively.
It is their sister, however, who is currently making headlines around the world. Marion Cotillard, 32, is nominated for the Best Actress Oscar this year for her portrayal of French singer-songwriter Edith Piaf in the biopic La Mome, released in the US and UK as La Vie En Rose.
Here's some more about the pretty Marion.
