WJEC A level sample titles

This is a very specific posting relating to the Welsh board sample questions.   I've been writing an essay writing guide for each of the 8 films in the WJEC list for the written exam and have found most of them straightforward.  However the Amélie question really does need some very very specific knowledge- "Analysez les rapports entre Amélie et ses collègues au café".  Whilst there is the obvious point about her manipulating Georgette and the obsessive guy Joseph into having a relationship, the other aspects of relationship are a bit dysfunctional to say the least unless you were to talk about her being influenced into bizarre behaviour herself because her colleagues are all weird and wonderful.   You really do need to have the tapescript for the film to get the level of detail required.
