Product Reviews
Quirky, French and Fantastic
I'm a musicals man, you can tell from many of my other reviews, but, I love the French too and this marvellously orignal french movie can be added to my Top 10 movies even though it lacks the song and dance numbers that make any movie for me.
Amélie's originality, Its original French title is Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain meaning "The Fabulous Destiny of Amélie Poulain", has sparked many copies and references in homage to this great visual feast and heart-warming tale.
The american TV series Pushing Daisies is based heavily on the look and feel of Amélie and in the Disney animated blockbuster, Up In The Air, a subplot shows a cardboard cutout of the heroes sister photographed in interesting places. They refer to this as 'like that gnome in the french movie'
