One of the most popular French films of the past 25 years, Amelie is a delightfully whimsical confection from the ever-inventive Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Jeunet began his career in animation and his live action films (which include Delicatessen and A Very Long Engagement) have a similar degree of freedom of movement and surrealistic caprice. Audrey Tautou stars in the title role, as a young Parisienne who resolves to make the world (or at least, her corner of it) a happier place…
This film will also play as part of the Film Studies: Creating Colour series.
