Amelie from Montmartre

Because Amelie’s parents mistakenly thought she had a serious heart defect, she was brought up overly protective and never had a normal live. She rarely had any contact with people and therefore Amelie created her own world of love and fantasy. As an adult she moves to Paris, where she finds a box that belongs to the former occupant of her room. The box is filled with childhood memories and this is when she decides to make her fantasies a reality. She is about to change the lives of the people around her, in a very peculiar way.

Worth the Popcorn?

'Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain' (French title) is a combination of originality. First, we have the magic of director Jean-Pierre Jeunet, with his own unforgettable visual style and storytelling – and with some help of cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel. Then, there's the story itself, full of quirks and charm. And lastly, Audrey Tautou, so genuine, funny, sweet and romantic. And with a pair of eyes you will recognize for the rest of your life. With two of those, you could probably pull off anything. But although Amelie might have grown up like a naive little girl, the movie itself certainly is not.

It's not every day you see a movie where everything falls together so perfectly. Lets not forget the incredible soundtrack while we're at it. If you will see only one French movie in your whole life, this should be the one. A overdose of positivity you cannot miss out on.
