Zazie - cute kid.
Zazi - INNOCENT! He was just researching this and trying to see if the Feds were paying attention. IT'S JUST LIKE BREITBART!
I could be a lawyer.
Zazi peddles?
Queneau's Anglicisms never fails to amuse me. But I never liked Zazie dans le metro. Cent Mille Milliards de Poemes is also amusing.
So who's the girl who played Zazie. Cute for sure but what an athlete. Fabulous running stride, great balance. Must have been a gymnast or a track star or a dancer.

I'll answer my own question, assuming that Wikipedia is right.
"Catherine Demongeot (born 10 July 1948, Paris) is a French actress. Her debut role was Zazie in Zazie in the Metro (1960), followed by only a few more films. According to an interview with Vincent Malle (film producer, and brother of Louis Malle) for the UK DVD release of Zazie (2006, Optimum Releasing), Catherine Demongeot never made another film and later went on to become an historian."
Exact same age as my wife (also a hell of an athlete) and a historian to boot. What's not to like!
Catherine Demongeot never made another filmbecause they used up all the Bugs Bunny cartoon devices and later went on to become an historian."
Definition of happiness: a pied a terre in Paris for quick getaways three or four times a year.
The kind of kid you want to step on. And the music made my teeth hurt. This clip explains why the French love Jerry Lewis. It made me want to nuke Paris.
@Smilin' Jack - Oh, it's much, much worse than Jerry Lewis; beloved French comedy icon, actor and directorJacques Tati
Malle also gave us Violet.
How can you tell Zazie is cute when she never slows down enough to even see her?

I've seen the whole movie several times. It's delightful.

I watched a couple of Tati flicks on Turner Classics last year while recuperating from a bike accident. They were pretty funny. The guy's early work was a poor man's Harold Lloyd of physical comedy, and I don't mean that as an insult. Harold Lloyd was better than even Chaplin.
Zazie..?? I did watch but I got my "adorable, hypertalented, hyperactive girl" fix in about 10 minutes and couldn't watch it anymore.
The Frenchies have great film talent and stars, but it seems that it is best displayed when it is not an insular "all-French thing".
The cutest girl in film EVER is Kirsten Dunst, because her court case today finally knocked MacKensie Phillips off my Yahoo news feed.
Why doesn't Kirsten Dunst get her teeth fixed?

Because being a snaggle-toothed actress gives her characters character and afterall, it's all about the 'craft'.
