Lili (1953)
Directed by Charles Walters
Members of a circus troupe "adopt" Lili Daurier when she finds herself stranded in a strange town. The magician who first comes to her rescue already has romantic entanglements and thinks of her as a little girl. Who can she turn to but the puppets, singing to them her troubles, forgetting that there are puppeteers? A crowd gathers around Lili as she sings. The circus has a new act. She now has a job. Will she get her heart's desire?

What critics compared Lili to
Some viewers have compared her to Audrey Hepburn, but Tautou's Amelie is more like a slightly naughty, less inhibited descendant of the characters Leslie Caron played in "An American in Paris" and "Lili."
