The movie Ame/ie rurns you on because it reminds you that people's disgusring, srrange,
unique or asrounding quirks are beaurifu l. You know you can care abour a person if you
look ar rhem long enough. And by the way, you are nor an island. You ca rry around
with you whar you see in orhers. These points, among many, make rhe movie smell
prelly and tasre like Godiva ice cream.
Ami/ie, a French movie wirh subtitles, returned to the Capitol Thearer on Saturday,
and rhe house was packed, again. According to Sean Savage, OFS director, Amelie sra rred
in rhe closing night of the Film Fesrival; "We had to rum people away." It was the fim.

Last Sunday rhe crowd lay thick on the seats. People sat close together in rhe dim room ,
and munched on popcorn with nutritiona l yeast, hor tamales or ju ju bees. Plastic crinkled
under warm behinds. Seats squeezed as people took off their jackets and hars.
The crowd ranged from graybeards ro Evergreen fres hman. During the movie, :,
selecrion of howls and giggling seared Ih rough the thealer. People who "llended Evergreen
liked the movie for many rcclsons.
"'It was a prerry movie," Jen Blackford said. Orher people called it funny or be.luriful.
or magical.
Students at Evergreen liked Allie/ie's attention to derail. The sers and ,cenes are
elaborate. Director Jean-Pierre Jeunet emp loys Amelie to corry oul his whimsiol,
observational style. Audience members Gill swim in Ihe scene ry wallpaper, blouses, shoes,
concrete sidewalks, bed sheets and waffle-like ciryscapes. In the movie, when someo ne has
all orgasm, neon signs blink. It's how we dream, right.
Jeuner's characte rs srick in our ears because they ar, clay globs, bur they are made of
realistic juice, such as loneliness, psychosis, fearfulness, insecurity, arrogance, shame,
and a basket of others. S[l(dents say we ca n fir in Amelie's shoes, and wear our heads
under her hair.
She's a real character, with her ballooned el1lorions. She also has sweet i!l[entions.
She answers the nagging urge we all feel each day, " How the hell do I reach out to
others in a good way'"
