In Little Girl Blue, Marion plays a central role, as the mother in the film is heavily inspired by the life of director Mona Achache’s own mother.
The film revolves around a woman trying to understand why her mother killed herself, and sees her discover a stash of thousands of letters and photos that provide insight into a person she doesn’t recognize.
Speak against deadline, Marion said she felt very close to these women because “many women in this world” have had difficult relationships with men, as depicted in the film.
She said, “My mother and my grandmother and even beyond have had this journey through very difficult relationships with men and sexual assault. I was very touched by this quest because it is a journey to healing.’
The mother-of-two was asked how far she thinks the film industry has come since the early days of #MeToo, to which she explained that they still have a long way to go.
‘We still have a long way to go! I always think of this woman going to another march, another walk with her sign that says “I can’t believe I’m still dealing with this shit here.”
She continued, “I’ve been an actress for a long time; I got into situations I shouldn’t have been in.

“There are still some sick men, and sometimes women, who take advantage of youth, who take advantage of the passion we have as actors, the fact that we depend on the wishes of directors, producers,” she said. .
Marion ended her talk on a positive note, saying that younger actresses are more alert than ever before and told to say “no.”
She said, “To know that those young actresses today know that this isn’t right, that if someone asks you something that you’re not comfortable with, you can say ‘No.’ I didn’t know that when I was a young actress it was a very different time.’
