Amélie (2001)
Original title: Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain
Synopsis
A shy young waitress in Montmartre decides to quietly orchestrate small acts of kindness and mischief in the lives of those around her — all while struggling to reach for the connection she most wants for herself. Jean-Pierre Jeunet's whimsical Paris is candy-colored and brimming with invention, and Audrey Tautou's heroine made the film an international word-of-mouth sensation. Pure charm, with a wistful heart.
