Aurélie Laflamme's Diary (2010)
Aurelie Laflamme feels alone in the world, especially since her father's death five years ago. What if her father had been an alien who left Earth to return to his own planet? In that case, Aurelie would be an alien too. That would explain many things such as why she feels different from others, especially her mother, why she can't string two words together without making a mistake, and why boys really get on her nerves. Through the pages of her diary, Aurelie confides her joys and sorrows, successes and failures, love and friendships, and tries to find her place.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
When I saw this movie I was blown away by how genuine it was. I think it pictures perfectly how you feel as a teenage girl, and how you feel when you think you are different from everybody else. The symbolic use of the extra-terrestrial concept works very well for that. This movie explores many different things such as loss of someone you love, friendship, the relationship between a girl and her mother, the first kiss, the first love... The actors all did a good job, especially the girl who plays Aurélie (and that was her first real role so bravo:)!). I think every young girl can relate to this story and protagonist... actually every girl can, because they used to be teenagers and probably remember how that feels. If you have the chance to watch it, go for it! I bet you're gonna have some tears in you eyes at some parts.
