Summary: Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, and with special guest Síomha McQuinn, This Just In is a subset of The 250 podcast, looking at notable new arrivals on the list of the 250 best movies of all-time, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. This time, Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain. Amélie Poulain has always been something of a special person, somebody who sees the world in a way that nobody else around her understands. Living a life of quiet desperate, freak events throw Amélie into the life of a complete stranger. The feeling is exciting to Amélie, who takes it as her mission to start meddling in the lives of all those around her. However, Amélie very quickly discovers that such meddling is rarely as tidy as one might hope. At time of recording, it was ranked the 102nd best movie of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
