	Amelie
	Dir. Jean-Pierre Jeunet France 2001 Amelie opens a rusty box of childhood treasures and in a flash has her destiny revealed: pair the lonely, mesmerize the jaded, bid bon voyage to the formerly housebound. In short, spread happiness (although she's not above seeking revenge on an ill-tempered fruit vendor). While aloft on a terrace our heroine muses about happiness and wonders how many Parisians are having orgasms at that exact in-stant (a dizzyingly explosive montage shows it to be 15). As sex is not the answer to all of life's problems, Amelie devises endlessly inventive stratagems of Rube Goldberg complexity, yet finds realizing her own happiness to be the most elusive solution of all. Director Jeunet (Delicatessen, City of Lost Children) opens his own bottomless box of cinematic wizardry and hyper-kinetic camera work in this story of artists, dreamers, misfits and loners. (subtitled; 122m)
