Amelie Poulain is a young French girl who was raised by overprotective parents. Once she is old enough she leaves her home and finds work as a waitress. Life if dull until she finds an old tin box in her flat. The box contains a schoolboy's long forgotten memories. She then decides she will hunt down the now middle-aged owner and in addition right the wrongs in the world and help the lonely find love...

Amelie is directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet who will probably be better know to you for his movie Delicatessen. This movie is one of the most heart warming films that I have seen for years. For those of you who still cling on to the belief that good things happen to good people then this movie is for you.

Audrey Tautou is wonderful as the helping Amelie and it is difficult not to draw comparisons with a young Audrey Hepburn.

There are plenty of very funny moments (including a lot of subtle jokes surrounding the death of Princess Diana) and fans of Delicatessen will spot the similar sex scene in here.

A wonderfully fulfilling movie that will have you coming back to it time and time again.
