If you’ve been studying French for a while, you’ve surely seen this movie at least once: Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amélie Poulain, also known as Amélie or Amélie from Montmartre. BUT if you watched it with the subtitles on, you probably missed some telling details in the conversations.
Today, I want to help you enjoy the movie on a deeper level. Let’s get behind the subtitles and really put your oral French comprehension to the test by exploring the subtleties of spoken French in the film Amélie.
Take care and stay safe.
😘 from Grenoble, France.

I always thought to myself that finally understanding Amelie without subtitles would be my graduation from French, now I know I am not even close...
That's a sad story.
I have read that is a very good way to learn fluency.
Same. The girl in the café, didn't understand a word she said. Despite listening to French audio books without any difficulty. Everyday speech can be a real challenge.
Then we have to keep on learning buddy. Good luck.
Same here, brother... Com'on we can do it!! 💪
"Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain" est mon film français le plus préféré !
More of these type of videos please! Merci beaucoup
My favorite movie! I could listen to you break down this movie for hours! So good and made me think of her character a bit differently than before. I always knew she was thoughtful (obviously) but knowing these tiny details really helps frame her character even more. Merci!
That's my favorite type of videos, Géraldine! It's so fascinating to know all these nuances in French. And when you prove it through movies, I'm sold 😍 Salutations de la Pologne!
J'adore ce film depuis que je l'ai vu pour la première fois en 2001. Il me rends heureux d'une certaine façon. Merci pour le vidéo.
Moi aussi!
I love these kind of lessons . There are so many UA-cam channels teaching standard French but it’s rare to see anything about the « language familiar «
More videos on different French accents would be great! I'm a French teacher and don't know all the different accents so would love to educate myself and my students more. Merci pour toutes ces vidéos excellentes !
This was fun! I watched this movie hundreds of times in the early 2000's! I was enthralled with the story and the acting. Thank you for giving me another reason to rewatch it.
Here are the few French films I have watched in my life:
1. Amélie by Jean-Pierre Jeunet
2. L'Auberge Espagnole by Cédric Klapisch
3. Paris by Cédric Klapisch
4. Bob Le Flambeur by Jean Pierre Melville
5. Caché by Michael Haneke
Not a big list I know.
But a great one! Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Cédric Klapisch are the two best contemporary French filmmakers, IMHO.
@@LauraMorland ☺️ merci beaucoup.
Fabulous film made even more interesting by your brilliant video. Thank you for sharing so much great content. This is another level of French - characterisation as well as useful vocabulary for everyday life.
This was so amazing!!! Can’t wait for more Amélie infos
I cannot believe it has been that long since Amelie was released! I will need to see it again. Audrey T was in every French movie at that time I think. Another, more disturbing, one was "He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not." Et, en fin, j'adore votre chaîne!
I loved the video and its explanation. I'll see if you have more on accents and where they are from in other videos. I live in France and for the first year, people just sounded French but now I start to see "oh, that is a southern accent"
Ouais, je connais le film «Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amélie Poulain». J’ai ce film sur DVD, j’ai le scénario, une boîte de musique qui joue la chanson « J’y suis jamais allé » et je suis allé au café du film avec une amie française. Merci infiniment pour ce vidéo.
Yeah, I know Amélie. I have the film on DVD, I have the script, a music box that plays the song "J’y suis jamais allé" and I have been to the café in Paris with a French friend. Thanks so much for the video.
Believe it or not, "vidéo" is a feminine noun! Like "photo" and "météo"! ( Final "o" is not masculine in French.)
@@LauraMorland Thanks so much for the correction.
J’adore ce film ainsi que cette vidéo instructive !
Thanks for the video, I really appreciate your videos. I love the Southern accent, especially in Grenoble. It's easy to learn and understand. Salut de Grenoble 👋❤️
Yeah. I speak Spanish and using the Southern French accent is more natural being I use both languages.
We love you and your videos!💖💖💖
Merci mille fois, c'etait super!
Nice video content, merci Geraldine!
love this video!
Salut madame! Je l'ai regardé deux fois,mais parfois j'y perdais mon latin(ne comprenais rien)! Mais grâce à votre vidéo je l'ai bien pigé! J'ai appris un tas de choses! Je vous sais gré et je vous remercie!
Salut!
Georgette always stood out to me in this film^^. Such a great work of art!
Merci pour partager! J’aime le film, je l’ai vu plusieurs fois pour apprendre le francais!
Très intéressant 💕💕💕Merci
Salut madame! Je meurs d'envie de regarder votre vidéo! Vos vidéos m'enchantent! Elles sont de vrais bijoux pour moi!
Salut!
Merci!
I have just rented the French film Amelie on you tube its a great film and I am learning a lot of French words and the story is brilliant and worth watching
The teacher is beautiful..👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰
Merci! ❤️
merci Géraldine.. I enjoy these film clip breakdowns. Pascal, another youtube French teacher also breaks down some commercials and its slang, which is both enjoyable and very helpful. I am a fan of Jean-Pierre Jeunet films, as he has a sensitivity for the misfit and also sweet revenge.
Jean-Pierre Jeunet is a true humanist. I would gladly pay to watch any film he makes in future, sight unseen.
Bonjour Geraldine, Merci pour une autre excellente vidéo, j'essaie de regarder le film d'Amélie mais je n'ai pas pu le trouver, pouvez-vous me suggérer cela d'où je peux le trouver SVP?
J'avais l'impressipn que tu venais de commencer et du coup c'est fini :D Comme c'est intéressant! Et trop court
I enjoyed and have watched Amélie several times. I think a somewhat similar type of movie, in English, having similar subtle humor, cultural (and other) stereotypes, double-entendre, and the like, would be Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb". You have to keep the ears and eyes open to catch everything. The screenwriting is just astounding.
I'm very interested to hear your thoughts on "Au Service..." I've said for a while that someone should do a workplace comedy like "The Office," but about being a spy. I was very surprised to find "Au Service..." And knowing even a little about the France of the time just made it funnier. "Algerie c'est France." Um, not for much longer...
Pardon. I know I should try to use French instead, but I am quite enthusiastic about the show.
this is just a soc media anecdote. I was privileged to have a transfer student (woman) from Lyon assigned to my lab here in Montreal. She was in Canada with her friend, (woman) doing her stage in law from Paris. That was quite interesting.
Brilliant video. Shines extra light on all those hidden gems. 'Stratagem', with the same meaning, exists in English. (The word is Greek, but English probably stole it from French!)
Thanks for this ! I think your videos are fantastic - nothing like all the super - academic French taught at l’ Institut français du Royaume Uni !
J'adore ce film
Bonjour Géraldine, could you record a comparison video on Québec French and European French, s'il vous plaît?
Audrey Tautou est incroyable
Merci Géraldine pour parler d’Amélie! Cette filme m’a beaucoup touche! Et maintenant je sais pourquoi je n’ai jamais compris de quoi il parlait Georgette!!
Intéressant vidéo. Tu as beaucoup de petites choses du Mexique 😊 saludos de una Mexicana!
Yes, I love her Mexican art! At first I thought, "Could that really be Mexican?" But then I remembered that her mother is from Mexico. (By the way, the word "vidéo" is feminine in French -- I can't find out why, but it is.)
J’adoreeeee
Bonjour Geraldine -- I would love to know your thoughts about the series Balthazar! Dites-nous! Merci!
I need the pop culture and subtlety too. Please.
J'aime la ligne
Where can I watch this Movie?
I think that I like the southern French accent. Does Amélie also have an accent? I think that she acts like that because she is very nervous or absent minded. What about the boy who works at the fruit Kiosk? Does he also have an accent? Or the old man?
I think that destiny is the theme of the movie. That we all have our personal past and present that we are dealing with. Merci pour le discussion.
Amelie has a light parisian accent, in my opinion. The boy at the fruit kiosk, too, has an accent, different. You know what, in France, everyone has an accent, stronger or lighter, depending on region, suburbs, social class, the background. That's so interesting to guess.
J'adore le fond de ton étagère en vert ton blouson en rouge et ta coupe de cheveux aujourd'hui....très Amélie
Yes, but your "helmet of bangs" is so low that it has become distracting. I'm enjoying looking at your old videos so that I can see your entire face!
Can you do a video on "ben"? I got that in a text this week!
Hey, Cinephiles! Watch this too: Amelie(2001) - Story Narration in Tamil: ua-cam.com/video/1QxyysMgARQ/v-deo.html
Bonjour I'm French student I need to make a video as my final assignment so I wanna ask if this translation is correct
'Le français est l'un des pays artistiques où le plus grand musée d'art est le Louvre Paris, mais saviez-vous comment l'art peut se propager en français.Au 12ème siècle, la France est à la pointe de l'art en raison de la grandeur de la sculpture.Dans l'art du 21ème siècle est l'une des attractions majeures de la France en raison du musée, des galeries d'art, de la superbe architecture médiévale, des grands châteaux de la Renaissance, du patrimoine artistique et culturel.Beaucoup d'artistes qui viennent d'Italie, des Pays-Bas, d'Espagne et d'autres viennent travailler en France. nous avons eu Mona Lisa de Léonard de Vinci et un autoportrait de Van Gogh.Pour la connaissance, il y a eu des styles d'art célèbres en français, par exemple l'architecture rococo, art nouveau et gothique'
This is the English version
French is the one of artistic country they have biggest art museum that is The Louvre Paris.But did you know how art can be spread in French.In 12st century France is in the forefront of artistic because of greatness in sculpture.In 21st century art is one of major attractions of France because of the museum,art galleries, stunning medieval architecture,great renaissance châteaux, artistic and cultural heritage.A lot of artists that come from itali, Netherlands,Spain and others come and work in France.From there we got Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci and self portrait from Van Gogh.For knowledge there got fomous art styles in French for example rococo, art nouveau and gothic architecture
Could you help us understand some of the jokes in Les Emotifs Anonymes? I think it's hilarious, but am sure there are things obvious to a native speaker of French that I don't grasp. Tre's dro^le.
If aliens came to Earth and asked "What is this Earth thing called 'movies'?" I would show them AMELIE...
I saw Amélie 9x oui 9 fois
Georgette parle un peu comme les québécois, non ?
Dang tes rêves
This was such a cool movie. They don't make such movies these days...

Why?
@@skandababy because french government are still colonising north of Africa and African countries by supporting dictators and benefiting from the wealth of so called ex french colonial countries in reality these countries are still under french control. The people of these countries are massively suffering from lack of justice health education unemployment and so on .french are very attached to their language and culture so if your beliefs are different from french culture and have different religion especially Islam you do not have a room in that society.french are extremists in a way but french government can not see that in fairness they are nice open minded french people who accept the way you are
It's interesting how much you wrote about France, and how horrible they are for "supporting" these dictators. But it's curious that you never said one single negative thing about the actual dictators. If you are so pissed off at the dictator, then why are you wasting your time here on UA-cam, pretending that France is some how culpable? Why are you not focused on these dictators? Why are you hiding away, and pointing fingers at a foreign country in Europe that's (ostensibly) "supporting" the dictator? Are you afraid? Are you unable? If you can't do the job yourself, then be a man, and admit it. Stop this charade of blaming other people, everyone sees right through this behavior. If you are looking for help, this is the worst way to get it.
Through work and travel, over the years, I've spent time in every northern African country except Libya. And one thing is certain, there is nothing western or "French" about these cultures. There is not freedoms of speech, religion, sexual orientation... the list goes on and on and on... So you're going to stick to these transparent claims against France, you should know those words will fall on deaf ears.
Instead of crying and making excuses about those who "support" the dictators, be a fkn man and deal with the actual dictator. You're so busy crying about France, but these north African governments would NEVER allow the freedoms and acceptance that you would enjoy in France... no matter WHERE you are from. Stop blaming the west for the corrupt governments you speak of, by doing nothing, you YOURSELF are supporting these dictators. We all watched as the Arab Spring removed so many dictators from their lofty positions in the M.E. So your arguments have no legs to stand on. No one wants to hear these sob stories or excuses and ill placed blame. How can you expect others to do what you are unwilling to do yourself?
