Loved it. Soundtrack is on the way.
Another one I really enjoyed was "Avenue Montaigne". Similar to "Amelie", but much better!
Can't wait for "2 Days in Paris".
And, "La Vie en Rose" is absolutely magnificent.

Mimi, you were up late last night!
I didn't like the vampire one either.
I picked out Juliette Binoche, Maggie G, G Depardieu, and Gena Rowlands, but I missed Nick Nolte unless all he did was light a cigarette on a street corner.
Loved the scenery and was able to understand some of the French.

Margo Martindal who plays the American woman who goes to Paris(she's alone wearing a money belt) ia a friend of our poster Tomascatte(sp)

Saw it and loved it....mostly. I intend to buy it when the DVD comes out, so that I can really get into the all the subtle details of character and place. Mimi, thanks so very much for listing all the characters.

I really enjoyed it. Margo Martindale's character was very funny and touching. Her totally American-accented French has given me a complex though - everytime I try to speak French I feel like I am sounding just like she did and it makes me feel even more self-conscious.

I watched the movie with a French exchange student who spent the summer with us, and the segment with Margo Martindale was actually her favorite. She found it very touching and she quite liked the character.
