Description:
Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Original Screenplay, this magical comedy earned overwhelming acclaim nationwide! A painfully shy waitress working at a tiny Paris cafe, Amélie makes a surprising discovery and sees her life drastically changed for the better! From then on, Amélie dedicates herself to helping others find happiness ... in the most delightfully unexpected way! But will she have the courage to do for herself what she has done for others?
Amazon.com:
Perhaps the most charming movie of all time, Amélie is certainly one of the top 10. The title character (the bashful and impish AudreyTautou) is a single waitress who decides to help other lonely people fix their lives. Her widowed father yearns to travel but won't, so to inspire the old man she sends his garden gnome on a tour of the world; with whispered gossip, she brings together two cranky regulars at her café; she reverses the doorknobs and reprograms the speed dial of a grocer who's mean to his assistant. Gradually she realizes her own life needs fixing, and a chance meeting leads to her most elaborate stratagem of all. This is a deeply wonderful movie, an illuminating mix of magic and pragmatism. Fans of the director's previous films (Delicatessen, The City of Lost Children) will not be disappointed; newcomers will be delighted. --Bret Fetzer
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Best movie Audrey Tautou has done
The point of view for this movie, the narration and Audrey's superb acting make this one movie you simply have to have in your collection. If you don't know about Audrey, this one is the best introduction you could find. And the story line is creative, sweet, ironic and iconic. Very much worth the price. I loaned a copy to a friend and never got it back... so bought another copy as it makes a great gift!
Rating: - Absolutely Charming !!!
This is an instant classic. Directed with a retro and modern feelers entwined throughout every scene, Amelie pulls you in and again further still. This movie seems like a children's tale and would make a great film for such with proper edits. It finishes with a nice moral rub for shy or difficult to understand people embedded in a warm, gooey bed of personal satisfaction. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
Rating: - 2nd time viewing..
I watched Amelie on DVD several years ago for fun, and really enjoyed it. Then a few weeks ago I finally ordered my own DVD and watched it again. It's great to watch even a second time thru, probably because it's hard to catch everything the first time. And that's because many of the good parts of Amelie are very brief, especially in the first 20 minutes or so when Amelie's childhood & teenhood are shown in a pretty fast pace. Just like how the official summary of the movie describes Amelie, ... Read More
Rating: - j'adore!
i love this movie so much. finally a happy-go-lucky movie with charm that'll make you laugh and feel all warm and fuzzy inside! :)
Rating:  - Alert. If you're looking for wholesome, this is not really it.
In my humble opinion this would have been a precious movie except for a few things, like...the frontal nudity and shots of people making out. Then there is the idea that people can live happily ever after if they fall into bed after barely knowing one another.Stuff like that.Doesn't work for me. If you can believe it, you will enjoy this movie.As for me I'm reeeeeally glad I watched a cheap used copy before I gave a DVD as a gift to a teenage relative - since I had gotten the impression elsewhere ...
