Amelie

Amelie as it is called in England but "Le
Fabuleux Destin D'amelie Poulain is the story of a fairly ordinary girl
whom through finding a box full of objects decides to return it to it's
owner. When she sees the effect it has on the owner she decides to begin
start helping others.

there are many amusing moments. Having watched the film at least five
times I would recommend this as a film to see. My

American Pie 2 is the second film of the same title but it's one year
