25th Anniversary: Amélie (2001)

The Regal Cinema Foreign Film monthly series presents the five-time Oscar nominated French film Amélie.

Amélie is a fanciful comedy about a young woman who discretely orchestrates the lives of the people around her, creating a world exclusively of her own making.

When a surprising discovery changes Amélie’s life, she commits herself to helping others find happiness – but will she ever find love herself?

Shot in over 80 Parisian locations, acclaimed director Jean-Pierre Jeunet invokes his incomparable visionary style to capture the exquisite charm and mystery of modern-day Paris through the eyes of a beautiful ingenue.

Shown in French with English subtitles.
