Will Melt Your Heart

Amelie is, without a doubt, one of the most heartwarming films ever made. A painfully shy waitress, Amelie Poulain happens upon a chance discovery that changes her life. She vows to become a "regular do-gooder," touching the lives of those around her and, in one hilarious scene, giving the mean-spirited grocer Colignon his just desserts for picking on his slow-witted assistant Lucien. Nonetheless, Amelie remains within the inner world of her rich imagination and seldom ventures out to forge real relationships with others. When she encounters Nino, an unusual young man with whom she feels a natural affinity, she longs for a relationship but can't bring herself to approach him, instead concocting elaborate "stratagems" to bring them together.
Audrey Tautou is absolutely adorable as Amelie, and the artful cinematography, quirky characters, and whimsical story come together in a wonderful film that celebrates the magic of everyday life. Amelie sees the world with a childlike sense of wonder that is thoroughly contagious.
The film is full of quirky, idiosyncratic characters, from the neurotic father who spends his days tending to a garden gnome to the Glass Man, a gifted painter who hasn't left his apartment in 20 years. Nino, like Amelie herself, is a dreamer, preoccupying himself with a scrapbook of pictures he sweeps out from under a photo booth. Before that, a co-worker informs Amelie, his pastime was tape recording funny laughs.
Amelie is the kind of movie that can be watched dozens of times without losing its magic. It's an infallible antidote to the blues that will warm your heart and bring a smile to your face every time. |
