    This movie had me at that very first scene. Natalie gracefully sweeping through the London with her blue hair while Damien Rice sings "I can't take my eyes off of you". This movie is a tough blow to a romantic soul. Thankfully, I'm a realist and a somewhat depressive so it played out in the most delightfully gritty, raw, and painful way.

    I watched this on a plane. The story line was preachy and infuriating. It contained some of the most irritatingly self-involved characters. After 30 mins, I took the moral high ground and fell asleep.

    Who doesn't love a movie that starts on Scarlett Johansson's bum?

    If I could live in one movie, this would be it. Skipping stones, counting orgasms, swiping mean dude's slippers, cracking my crème brûlée with my spoon.... oh Amélie how I love you.

    This is one of the most perfectly shot movies. Every shot is a compositional masterpiece.
