May 13 2008 Audrey Tautou Still Adorable as Coco Chanel
How adorable is Audrey Tautou as a youngish Coco Chanel? Cuter than everything? Except for Amelie, yes---and I don't just say that because I have a strange, repressed, Reservoir Dogs fetish. It's because Audrey Tautou is cuteness in its pure, synthesized form: a raw rock of puppy that you also want to sleep with.

Feb 14 2008 'Priceless' Poster Exploits My Love of Amelie
With its iconic poster still adorning the walls of countless young women's rooms, Breakfast at Tiffany's still remains outside the vicious world of remakes for now--at least until Gap needs someone new to shill pants. Pierre Salvadori has, however, made a "fresh re-imagining" of the story, alluding to as much with a Tiffany Blue poster and a fresh, new, black-dressed Audrey. Tautou's overwhelming cuteness forbids me from pre-judging this too much, but if they hope to compare to the original, they'd better have a mighty powerful racist stereotype to compete with Mickey Rooney.
