Laura . (Nymphaeas)

*cries like a new born babe in arms* My apologies. I adore this film. That was the only method by which I could convey just how MUCH I adore this film. At the risk of sounding like a sentimental puddle of goop - Amelie is a gorgeous french fairy-tale of a film, with a delicious(accordian-flavoured) soundtrack courtesy of the wonderful Yann Tierson, and a liberal dose of pure, radiant originality. Spell-binding, oddly philisophical, heart-warming and yes.....(if you are a weakling like myself) tear-jerking.

An absolute triumph of British cinema. Far, far, far too good to deserve it's classification as a "cult classic". This film is not just for cult-film fans to quote, gloat, and guffaw over. This film is a master piece of British comedy. This film should be an obligatory item on the national curriculum. Should anyone attempt to criticise this clear work of literary, comedic, dramatic (and just about any other conceivable) genius then, in the words of Withnail himself: "the fucker will rue the day!"
