The ups and downs of Amelie made a interesting story. It ignores a traditional movie format, with whimsey, and a good balance of magic in a modern world. Light hearted and Fun, I was entertained and pulling for Amelie the whole way.A movie which might have been overlooked by many, which makes it a great addition to a dvd collection, you'll always have something people haven't seen, and it's appriote for most company.AO
