At a tiny Parisian café, the adorable yet painfully shy Amélie accidentally discovers a gift for helping others.

It's explained that young Amelie longed for her father to hug her or be affectionate with her, but that he had a cold personality and would almost never touch her at all.

Not a physical abuse, but a man who aggressively follows and spies on his ex- and new girlfriend and sometimes also verbally harasses them.

A brief scene features a peepshow stripper. While sexualized, she is also portrayed as a person simply doing her job, casually talking to her coworker while dancing. The scene isn't that eroticized, the camera angles are not too close-up or male-gazey.

It does have a happy ending. They should have just asked, Does it have a happy ending? or Does it have a sad ending? The double negative is too confusing.

Amelie as a child takes a picture of some clouds. Coincidentally, one car drives into the side of another. It's minor enough accident, but there is noise and visible damage. Amelie is made to believe that the accident was her fault because she took the photo.
