Amelie (2001) starring Audrey Tautou, Mathieu Kassovitz. Sheltered young woman (Tautou) encounters real life at the age of 23, decides to try and manipulate the lives of those around her to make them happier. When she finally finds a young man she is interested in, she pursues him in a rather elliptical fashion, always working on a new stratagem. The movie is shot with a saturated color palate that I find very pleasing. It is cleverly written, and Tautou is brilliant in her starring role. I found this to be a charming, original film in all its facets. In French, with English subtitles. Grade: A
