Editing in the Film AMELIE
Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amelie Poulain (aka. Amelie) (2001)
Editing in films, especially in Amelie, relies heavily on mise-en-scene, camera position, and movement. So many attributes that may be thought to be related with the mise-en-scene of this film has a lot to do with the editing of the film as well. During the introduction of Amelie, the scenes are put together to look like a slide show. ... They all seem to be taken at the same time but put together with the use of editing to look like they were all taken at different moments in time. ... Or in the editing sense, this is all a flashback. ... During editing when the editor uses a series of rapid shots, it gives the audience little time to think about what they are seeing. All the information that is being presented in the introduction of the film is not useless because the director does elaborate on it throughout the film. ... This is another instance of temporal editing. ... This plays into the rhythm aspect of the film. ... Except of course, Amelie’s, and this is because she is the main character and we learn more and more information on her as the movie progresses.
There is a shot during Amelie’s father’s introduction, when all the colors in the scene are so vivid it almost looks as though it isn’t a movie we are watching, but a painting on a wall.
