Plot Summary:
|
Vianne Rocher and her puerile daughter are drifters who are met with skepticism and guerillas when they submit to a Tory town in rural France and open a chocolate peach on during Lent. As Vianne begins to work her magic and help those around her, the townspeople are quickly won-on by her effervescence and her delicious chocolates - except in search the mayor, who is tenacious to shut her down. When a sort of river drifters call in the town, Vianne teaches the townspeople something about acceptance, and finds love inasmuch as herself along the way.

Chocolate, Johnney, Juliette and a little French village.
Chocolate, Johnney Depp (with irish accent), Juliette Binoche and a quaint little french village. Truely what i call a truely gorgous film. Not a dull moment to be seen in the plot. Simply a very lovable film and well worth everyones time. I fell in love with it and i'm sure you will to.
Chocolat
Chocolate-box adaptation of international bestseller about the struggle between liberation and conservatism. With Juliette Binoche, Judi Dench and Johnny Depp
A Hollywood Swede directing an international cast in an adaptation of an Englishwoman's novel that's set in France. Is this a recipe for success?
The talent's certainly there: director Lasse Hallström's The Cider House Rules garnered numerous awards, and the line-up of French institution Binoche, British grande dame Dench, American actor-with-integrity Depp, upcoming talent Moss and various international character actors (Molina, Stormare, Mrs Hallstöm Olin) smells good.
Dealing with intolerance, Chocolat opens with the upstanding Reynaud (Molina) welcoming the faithfu...
Chocolat
Vice-president Lasse Hallström followed up The Cider Residence Rules with this delightful unpractical comedy stage play, adapted from the best-seller at near Joanne Harris. Gel in the late 1950s, it stars Juliette Binoche as a rootless mother who appears overnight in a niggardly French village and brazenly opens a chocolate shop — during Lent. Unfaltering Catholic mayor Alfred Molina disapproves of her lifestyle and fears the dare to his authority, but Binoche's confections are soon raising spirits (and more), particularly sum total the state wives. The passenger of goodly river gypsy Johnny Depp further inflames passions. Hallström skilfully creates a of the stifling nature of provincial human being, and of a deeper spiritual malaise for which the bew...
Chocolat
A very honeyed confection that makes individuality seem the matrix hide-out of the holier-than-thou; it's not so much soft-centred as positively melting over Binoche's ever-tolerent leading actress. Square on its fairy-anecdote level, there's no real tension or contest here between fr
Chocolat
The 1950s. Lent in the Gascony village of Lansquenet. A red-hooded concubine (Binoche) and child (Thivosol) boldly throw into relief...
