HA NOI (VNS)  — The Centre for Assistance and Development of Movie Talents (TPD) will screen the French movie Amelie tomorrow.

The 2001 romantic comedy Amelie (Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain) is a whimsical depiction of contemporary Parisian life set in Montmatre. It tells the story of a shy waitress, played by Audrey Tautou, who decides to change the lives of those around her for the better, while struggling with her own isolation.

When it was released in the US the movie made US$33 million, making it the highest-grossing French-language film ever released in the US.

The screening will start at 7.30pm at 51 Tran Hung Dao Street (level 4). Entry costs VND20,000.

On the same day, L'Espace will present the movie 8 Times up (8 Fois Debout) at 8pm.

TeleCineObs, a publication that critiques movies, said about 8 Times up: "The romantic and melancholy film from young writer Xabi Molia does not hesitate to tackle the most implacable standards of our world."

The movie will be presented in its original French with Vietnamese subtitles. Tickets cost VND50,000. For members of L'Espace and students they're VND40,000. — VNS
