french movies rock my world.

The kiss scene in Amelie is one of my favorite cinematic romantic moments in the whole of film. There's something so well done about it, how they move.

I saw a French film many years ago, mid 90s I think, at the Village Cinema. It was about a girl who lives with a gay boy, and she leaves her cat with this woman who takes care of cats for people in Paris while they are away. The cat gets lost, and a lot of the movie is taken up in her trying to find it. There is a boy who helps her, who is slightly odd. I can not remember the name of this film and it is killing me, because it was the most joyous thing I have ever seen. I must find it again.

I love Amelie.

I want to see the new Audrey Tatou movie - I can't remember the name off the top of my head, but it's supposed to be brilliant.

An older movie, but an absolutely wonderful one you might like is the one I mentioned above, Chacun cherche son chat. A kind LJ person knew the name.

Why is it that girls named Audrey are always beautiful actresses?

Lovely! I shall have to look about for it.

I do not know, but you're right, the two things do seem to coincide.

This movie (http://us.imdb.com/Title?0291579) is the one I meant.

Oh I really must see that. I love to watch Samuel Le Bihan.
