    Synopsis

    A mother and daughter move to a small French town where they open a chocolate shop. The town, religious and morally strict, is against them, as they represent free-thinking and indulgence. When a group of gypsies arrive by riverboat, the Mayor's prejudices lead to a crisis.

    Recommandations

      Portland Oregonian

      It's built of such exquisite craft -- the acting, the decor, the photography, the music -- that to refuse it is to refuse the very sensations that draw us to art, romance and maybe even life itself.

      L.A. Weekly

      While there are scenes of wrenching emotional openness and spontaneous charm -- largely due to the irresistible allure and impeccable craft of its ensemble cast -- the degree of calculation apparent in its plot and images undermines its efforts to move and seduce.

      The New York Times

      So assured in its manipulative prowess that only afterward do you realize how fully you've been worked over.

      Newsweek

      Chocolat is a seriocomic plea for tolerance, gift-wrapped in the baby blue colors of a fairy tale and served up with a sybaritic smile.

      Mr. Showbiz

      It's so easy to be mesmerized by Chocolat's brilliant indulgences that one abandons reason altogether.

      Entertainment Weekly

      It's as agreeably sweet as advertised, with a particularly yummy performance by Juliette Binoche.

      Charlotte Observer

      Certainly satisfies our hunger for a light, bright dessert, yet it may leave you hungry for more.

      More sugary than satisfying.
