Populaire

 
  Populaire is french romantic comedy about a typist named Rose Pamphyle.  Rose starts out as a small town klutz living with her widowed father. But fed up with her small town life she decides to take a job as a receptionist for the owner of an insurance agency, Louis Échard. For the most part Rose is terrible at her job, accidentally shredding documents, and writing meetings on her boss's hand. But Rose has  hidden talent, typing. Louis recognizes this and decides to start training her for a speed typing competition. 
  The movie is in french but it has subtitles and is available on Netflix. It is great if you love 50's fashion. The movie isn't much different from any other rom com but it has great cinematography. The characters are also very interesting naive but willful Rose and competitive, closed off Louis. If you love rom coms, france and/or 50's style this movie is for you.
