"Amélie Poulain was raised by eccentric parents who — erroneously believing that she had a heart defect — prevented her from meeting other children. She was home schooled by her mother. She developed an active imagination and fantasy life to cope with her loneliness. After her mother is killed due to a freak accident, her father's withdrawal from society worsens. Amélie eventually decides to leave home and becomes a waitress at Café des 2 Moulins in Montmartre, which is staffed and frequented by a collection of eccentrics. Spurning romantic relationships after a few disappointing efforts, she finds contentment in simple pleasures and letting her imagination roam free."
A very good film, I enjoyed every second of the film. The actress who played Amelie was very interesting to watch, she is a wonderful and beautiful actress. She is completely funny and makes the character of Amelie so compelling to watch. I admit at first I that this was going to a very crazy corny comedy but I was proved almost entirely wrong. The film is as crazy as the characters that appear in it but maybe that's why it appeals to me. The characters were realistic in nature, which make some of them relatable. The director really knew what he was doing with this film I applaud him. I had an incredibly easy time relating to Amelie as a person which made the film even better. I suggest this film to anyone that loves a good French movie and anyone that likes romantic comedies.
3.5/5
