From NetFlix:

Impish gamine Amélie (Audrey Tautou) lives alone and works in a café. When she finds a trove of toys hidden for 40 years behind a baseboard in her apartment, she’s inspired to repatriate the items, an impulse of generosity that sparks more benevolent acts. A celebration of life, Amélie reminds us of the small wonders that abound around us … if only we paused to look.

In recommending this film, the book “1001 Films To See Before You Die” says this is a sweet Parisian travelog about two hearts finding each other. For me there were some funny sightgags. In fact the review in the book suggests that we really should watch two other films by the writer/director Jean-Pierre Jeunet, namely, “Delicatessen” (about Parisian cannibals) and “The City Of Lost Children” (a mad scientist literally steals children’s dreams).
