Amélie: parents' guide

Little violence. Amélie's mother dies in a quick, darkly comic moment when a suicidal tourist falls on her from a cathedral roof, and a grocer belittles and slaps his disabled assistant. Amélie's revenge pranks are harmless.

Mild. Movieguide noted only one very mild obscenity plus some sexual slang, and Common Sense lists very little profanity. Most crude talk is about sex rather than swearing.

A quick montage shows couples climaxing, with brief bare breasts. Two café regulars have loud, rattling sex in a restroom, Amélie's first lovers appear briefly, and Nino's job at a porn shop brings shelves of sex toys and brief glimpses of nude dancing. Played for comedy.

Café patrons and regulars drink wine and other alcohol often, and several characters smoke cigarettes. No drug use was noted.

Not scary. The mother's sudden death, a lonely childhood and a goldfish that keeps leaping from its bowl are treated with whimsy, though the father's grief and withdrawal may register with sensitive viewers.
