small things in life make the big things

this was a tricky movie to rate. ameliè is a small movie with a big heart. it reminds us dreamers not to spend our life dreaming of being something we're not, instead start enjoying what life has to offer today. and it reminds the disabled and depressed, that there is always hope. and it reminds the 9-5 class that they're forgetting to enjoy they're life. a nice idea. i myself knew these things already, i've looked my way already. i think ameliè could be a very teachful movie for some people, but unfortunately i think that the group of people (read: majority) will most likely not understand it and just ignore it. EDIT: looks like i was wrong looking at the imdb rating...weird.

ameliè has ok acting, yet nothing special, and i was even annoyed by some of the characters. the narrator was quite funny with the little details on everything.

*** WARNING: SPOILER ***

the most disappointing thing in the movie is, though, the way that it turns into a regular love drama/comedy in the end. i almost puked because the end was so bad. why? why?

*** WARNING: SPOILER ***

oh well, i'd still recommend you see it, as a movie, average, as a lesson, priceless.
