The Amélie Aesthetic



Sixteen years, five Academy Award nominations, and one blatant “roaming gnome” ripoff later, every single frame of Amélie, the unforgettably romantic contemporary classic also known as Le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain, still seems infused with a glowing warmth. That’s no accident. Director Jean-Pierre Jeunet (City of Lost Children, Micmacs) used a specific type of post-production magic to enhance the vibrancy and supercharge the saturation of reds, greens, and yellows, adding a heavy shot of surreality to a potent cocktail of magical realism that is garnished with a twist of irony. If you think red and green is strictly a holiday-themed color combination, this video is about to change your mind. Use these rich and offbeat color schemes to inspire your own flights of fancy!

  1. The soundtrack flows through my heart to illuminate the chambers of my emotional memory and give these visuals life. For me there would have been no Amelie without music. Just like your video would have meant nothing to me without sound.
