In 2001 the French feature film "Amélie was released. Both in France and far
beyond the movie about a Parisian waitress was a great success. . The story,
the humour, the atmosphere and the acting performances turned out to appeal
a wide audience from Japan to the USA. The movie won several Césars (French
movie awards) and was nominated for a number of Oscars. The movie is, for
the most part, set in Montmartre. Not so much in the most touristy part
around the Place du Tertre, but rather in the lesser known part west of it.

We did a walk throug Montmartre along the locations where the movie was
shot. On my website you can read our account of the walk with photos of what
we saw in this pleasant part of Paris.

The only good thing about that movie was Audrey Tautou. And it would have
been nice if the producers had been able to afford the color blue in their
film processing.
