Amelie

If you're depressed, watch Amelie, it is the most beautiful movie ever made. It recognizes the small things in live that make it worthwhile, and shows people who live on the "outside" who eventually find happiness despite their social ineptitudes. Everytime I watch the last scene, I cry, because it's so beautiful.

But then, I love foreign films.

yeah, as a film student I can definetely see that! The shot where Amelie is skipping stones on the bridge is amazing.

you're a film student?

so am I! :nod:

I just got back from the film library, I had to analyze the sound in 2 scenes from Citizen Kane.

Amelie is such a great movie, very happy, but yet very depressing because she reminded me of myself.
