Amelie is shot in two main thematic colours: red and green, which vary according to situations and moods. Watch it again with that in mind. See more...

Deliberate "mistake": The film is set in 1997. There is a scene where Amelie knocks on a house door and in the background is a new model VW Beetle. These weren't available until early 1998. You can also see several scenes with various new models of Fiat Punto and VW Golf which weren't available until 1999.
Continuity: When Bretodeau picks up the treasure box, inside the phone booth, the way he holds it changes between shots
Continuity: When Nino goes to 'Les deux Moulins' for the first time, we can see Amelie writing the menu on a glass right behind him. A few shots later, we see the glass again and the handwriting is quite different. That's easy to see if you look carefully at the 'd'. Later on, we see the glass once more, and the handwriting has changed again.
Continuity: When Amelie is writing the menu on the glass screen and watching Nino, Nino turns around and she writes 'Oeufs.' Between shots she writes the 's' on the end of 'Oeufs' twice.
Revealing: In the part where Amelie gave back the photo album to the bloke in the fun park, when he finally gets to his bike, you can see people in the background staring intently at the filming.
