Marion Cotillard honored by Harvard's Hasty Pudding troupe

Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard has taken home the pudding pot after being honored as woman of the year by Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theatricals.

Cotillard smiled, waved and caught a teddy bear from the crowd during a parade through Cambridge's Harvard Square on Thursday.

The procession was followed by a roast of the 37-year-old French actress at Hasty Pudding headquarters, during which Cotillard sang a song from "La Vie En Rose." Cotillard won a best actress Academy Award for her portrayal of famed French singer Edith Piaf in that 2007 film.

Cotillard has appeared more recently in films like "Inception" and "The Dark Knight Rises." She also earned Golden Globe and SAG Awards nominations for her role in "Rust and Bone."

Claire Danes was the woman of the year in 2012.

The awards are presented annually to performers who have made a lasting and impressive contribution to entertainment.
