Amelie or Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain

I just recently watched Amelie in full and I have to say
this movie is a masterpiece. I went out and bought the
DVD straight away (something I never do!).

This movie is pure cinematic MAGIC. It has the most
memorable, quirky, unique characters you will ever find.
And oh my gosh the imagination and creativity will never
cease to amaze. Audrey Tautou (23 at the time) gives a
performance of a life time as the eccentric dreamer,
Amelie. The beautiful, BEAUTIFUL cinematography is pure
artistry. And the soundtrack... jeez there is just
sooooooooo much greatness in this french film.

I wish I wrote this amazing script. It reminds me of
some stuff I wrote for Damaged Goods and Coupon for 2
(two works in progress). I always strive to create
'magic' when I write. It's that joy and wonder that
comes with something that is creatively and
imaginatively awesome. In fact, I have a giant note on
my wall, right above my computer, that says 'MAGIC' to
remind myself everyday what I'm trying to create when at
my computer.

Anyways this is La Valse D'Amelie [Piano Version] from
the Amelie soundtrack. Please enjoy and do yourself a
favour and watch Amelie!
