Movie #270 "Amelie" is one of a kind --- blissfully funny, creative, romantic comedy. Quirky is the key word to this delightful tale that has sets that I think inspired t.v. show "Pushing Daisies.": If you don't fall in love with Audrey Tatou here, I don't know when it would be --- she's utterly charming and it is her movie. And what a cast of one-of-a-kind characters. This is a can't miss, esp. if you don't usually like foreign films.

Amelie
Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain
(2001) R
When impish gamine Amélie (Audrey Tautou), who lives alone, finds a long-hidden trove of toys behind a baseboard in her apartment, she's inspired to repatriate the items, an impulse of generosity that sparks more benevolent acts. A celebration of life and love, French director Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Oscar-nominated charmer stresses the importance of small wonders that surround us, if only we paused to look.
