Amelie (2001)

When this came out, there was a lot of word-of-mouth surrounding it. The phrase "Have you seen Amelie, yet?" became a daily phrase spoken by some and heard by most. Personally, it took me years to see it and perhaps the buzz-less atmosphere around it by now led me to think it wasn't all that superb. 

The most interesting thing were the snippets of life shown, particularly the quiet moments of enjoyment people had with things. This made me wonder what it is I enjoy privately. I came up with peeling the paper of a new tub of margarine.
