From the moment that 2001 audiences saw Amélie’s initial cascade of storybook images flash across the screen, they knew they were in for something special. French filmmaker Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s ode to the magic of Paris became the top-grossing film of the director’s career thanks to the inventive story, delightful cinematography, and actress Audrey Tautou’s infectious charm.
At a tiny Parisian café, the adorable yet painfully shy Amélie accidentally discovers a gift for helping others. Soon Amelie is spending her days as a matchmaker, guardian angel, and all-around do-gooder. But when she bumps into a handsome stranger, will she find the courage to become the star of her very own love story?
