Amélie

This film is a legend about an extraordinary girl who lives in a world of her own fantasies, filled with stories and memories from the director's collection that he began assembling in 1974.

It is the masterpiece of Jean-Pierre Jeunet, a role of a lifetime for Audrey Tautou, and features a soundtrack by Yann Tiersen that instantly became famous. It is one of those rare cases when people from Japan to Alaska suddenly become excited and rushed to watch a new French film. In many countries, such as Japan, parents started naming their newborn girls Amelie after the film's protagonist. The popularity of the movie "Amelie" is also greatly attributed to the significant increase in property prices in Montmartre after 2001. Additionally, in Ecuador, a newly discovered species of "glass" frog was named after Amelie Poulain.
