Clearly I need to be paying more attention to A Life Uncommon (whose title always makes me think of A Life Less Ordinary). Check out the Amelie effect, which you can download (or duplicate according to the instructions) for Photoshop. (via Zeldman)
By the way, if you haven’t seen Amelie, go rent it! It’s charming and funny and quirky and delightful and it’s one of exactly three subittled films that I’ve bought. (The others being Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Run, Lola, Run.)
