Audrey Tautou in the 18th arrondissement

Anyone reading my blog will be aware of how much I detest tourism, but occasionally you just have to ignore the tourists and do your thing. Jean-Pierre Jeunet's brilliant movie Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulin (2001), boringly Anglicized to Amelie, has a number of scenes set in the Café des 2 Moulins, rue Lepic, Montmartre. As expected, there are shots of the actor Audrey Tautou on the walls, although I suspect that the vast majority of people who know this movie just prefer to take an outside shot of this place, whose interior isn't entirely recognisable from the film.
