Photo du Jour - Café des Deux Moulins


Sacrebleu!

Café des Deux-Moulins, the famous café from the film Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain, has been painted Pepto-Bismol pink! Pin It

Oh wow thanks for posting this. Amelie is my favourite movie and always wondered where this was/what it looked like. Its cutesie!

Amelie is also my favourite movie and I think the cafe was better not being Pepto Bismol pink.

But to be frank if i could meet Audrey Tautou in there I wouldn't be looking at the walls.

Amelie lovers may be interested in this ad for Chanel No. 5 which features Audrey and is obviously heavily influenced by Amelie.

Ack! Travesty! Amélie is one of my favorite movies, too. Not to flatter myself, but even my brother once referred to it as "that movie with the girl who looks like you." :D

Garry you might want to check out "Priceless". Audrey's sexy body is at her best in that movie.

Jennifer, hope you are having a great time in Paris. You got nice weather, that's for sure.

It looks darling to me -- I'm sure my daughters would love it. Hope you're having a great time! How can you not, really?

It doesn't look bad...it is a bit surprising though!

It was our "neighborhood" café, on the corner of rue Lepic and rue Couchois.

That is a fantastic compliment! SO sorry we didn't get to meet up this time. I will be back in Paris soon, I promise.
Have a good trip!

Nadege
But how is the movie? :)

Ken
We had a fantastic time. And the weather couldn't have been better.

Betty
Thanks! We had such a wonderful trip. But my feet are sore from the miles and miles of walking!
Yes, your daughters would love it, I'm sure.
