In April 2006 and again in December 2007 , Binoche travelled to Tehran at the invitation of Abbas Kiarostami . While there in 2007 , she shot a cameo appearance in his film '' Shirin '' ( 2008 ) which he was shooting at the time . Binoche 's visit proved controversial when two Iranian MPs raised the matter in parliament , advising more caution be exercised in granting visas to foreign celebrities which might lead to " cultural destruction " . In June 2009 Binoche began work on '' Certified Copy '' directed by Kiarostami . The film was an Official Selection in competition at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival . Binoche won the Best Actress Award at the festival for her performance . The film went on general release in France on 19 May 2010 to very positive reviews . Her win at the 2010 Cannes Film festival makes Binoche the first actress to win the European " best actress triple crown " : Best Actress at Venice for '' Three Colors : Blue '' , Best Actress at Berlin for '' The English Patient '' and Best Actress at Cannes for '' Certified Copy '' . The September 2010 UK release of the film was overshadowed when French actor Gérard Depardieu made disparaging comments about Binoche to the Austrian magazine '' Profil '' , " Please can you explain to me what the mystery of Juliette Binoche is meant to be ? " he said . " I would really like to know why she has been so esteemed for so many years . She has nothing – absolutely nothing " . In response , while promoting '' Certified Copy '' , Binoche spoke to movie magazine '' Empire '' saying , " I do n't know him . I understand you do n't have to like everyone and you can dislike someone 's work . But I do n't understand the violence of his statements ... I do not understand why he is behaving like this . It is his problem . " '' Certified Copy '' proved to be controversial in Kiarostami 's homeland when Iranian authorities announced on 27 May 2010 that the film was to be banned in Iran , apparently due to Binoche 's attire ; Deputy Culture Minister Javad Shamaqdari is quoted as saying , " If Juliette Binoche were better clad it could have been screened but due to her attire there will not be a general screening . " Following the success of '' Certified Copy '' , Binoche appeared in a brief supporting role in '' The Son of No One '' for American writer and director Dito Montiel . The film also stars Channing Tatum , Al Pacino and Ray Liotta . '' The Son of No One '' premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival to fairly negative reaction . It was acquired by Anchor Bay Entertainment for distribution in the US and other key territories arriving in selected US cinemas on 4 November 2011 . , according to film review aggregator '' Rotten Tomatoes '' , '' The Son of No One '' is Juliette Binoche 's least critically successful film , with only 18 % of critics giving it a positive review
