Back in January, Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard teamed up with Franz Ferdinand for a Dior commercial, because that seems like a totally reasonable thing for Franz and Marion Cotillard to do. Now they've gotten together for a full music video, for the song, "Eyes of Mars," that features Cotillard fronting the band and strutting the city at night. She doesn't really have the voice to make the louder parts land as hard as they should, but she's got a pleasant enough set of pipes to pull off the verses at least. She's definitely better than Scarlett Johansson, so there's that. [Stereogum]
