Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain

Our Humanities 1 professor made us watch this; and it's the first full-length French movie I've seen. Unlike the first one he made us watch (Old Boy), which, I tell you is very much disturbing, this one doesn't revolve on revenge that much. Though there's a bit of it in the middle, it was done in behalf of someone else.

AND there's a bit of love story in the end too. Sort of added for the main character to fix her life, and not for the entire movie to exist.

Other notes: 
If the actress who played Amélie Poulain, Audrey Tatou,looks familiar to you, 
I could only think of two reasons why: 
1) She looks a lot like Liv Tyler. 
2) You've seen her play Sophie in The Da Vinci Code.

After watching this movie, I was partly dismayed with Ghajini particularly the scene where the woman helped the blind man go to his destination while the woman was describing the setting on the way. Rip-off. 


Amélie Poulain: "She doesn't relate to other people. She was always a lonely child."
