So true. And so sad that there are so little movies made, that don't just follow the same "play it safe"-formula, and instead dare to be unique, creative, doing it's own thing. I'm sure there are a lot talented writers and directors out there with great original stories and ideas how to tell a story in a fresh way. But they either don't take the risk, or there's just no studio/company that is willing to invest money in such movies.

The color of every shot is amazing to this day. I don't think what they accomplished in camera has an equal. They weren't relying on digital color correction to do this, so the attention to color palette in set design, costuming, locations, etc. is just bananas. Truly a masterpiece.

Sam was actually right in the sense that there was a Broadway musical not so long ago based on the film. Now to see the dark, dystopian sci-fi/fantasy side of the director, Jean Pierrre Juenet, watch "The City of Lost Children" with, of all people, Ron Perlman. While "Amélie" was shot on location in bright colors, TCoLC is all shot in a sound stage with amazing sets.

I love this film. The directors have two other films that you should see. Both are incredibly quirky and yet, all three are different. Amelie is a love story, Delicatessen is a quirky horror/dystopian film, and City of Lost Children is a quirky, twisted fairy tale. Check them out! Also, you'll notice that many actors are in all three films.

As one of your french subscriber, it really warmths my heart that you picked up THIS movie. A true classic and timeless piece of art, very touching, innocent, and funny. There are other french movies that I highly recommend you guys : - The spanish appartment (french title "l'auberge espagnole") : a feel good movie about a french student in economy going to Barcelona for his studies, and find an appartment shared with an english woman, spanish woman, danish guy, italian guy, german guy. It's a clash of culture that is so funny to watch and uplifting, they are all so adorable in it. And Audrey Tautou plays in it too! - The green beautiful (french title "La belle verte") : a movie about an extra-terrestrial visiting earth to find out where our evolution is. Very smart and funny movie! - Auntie Danielle (french title "Tatie Danielle") : a very acid comedy about an old bitter woman gently taken care of by her nephew after the death of her housekeeper. They are kind-hearted naive people who discover that her auntie isn't as nice as she pretend to be, and she will make their life a nightmare. Pure gold!

I just love this movie. Romcoms are usually not at all my cup of tea, as they are so often so predictable and cheesy.

Love Amelie! This director did a few other whimsical movies after this that didn't quite live up to Amelie. However, he collaborated with another co-director on two movies before this Called "Delicatessen" and "City of Lost Children." Both are great, City is a little bit better known, but I prefer delicatessen, it's a little more whimsical and romantic. Not quite as much as Amelie. I definitely recommend it! there will be a few actors from Amelie that you might recognize.

My eldest daughter was studying abroad in Paris when this charming movie came out and highly recommended I see it. I'm glad I did. Amelie is an inventive, cinematic extrapolation of Jane Austin's "Emma" with Paris co-starring as the backdrop. If you enjoyed Amelie, another Emma-esque movie made in the 90's to react to is called "Cold Comfort Farm". It stars a Kate Beckinsdale, early in her career, matchmaking lots of amazing normal/eccentric characters while stumbling upon love herself.
