2001's best film

Not being a fan of Binoche *at all,* I was reluctant at seeing this at first, but having heard the delightful soundtrack, I went ahead, and was not disappointed.
Movies without guns and violence are so rare these days, they are difficult to appreciate when seen.

Wonderful performances by Molina, Binoche, Judi Dench and even Johnny Depp add credibility to this story. The chocolate seems sooo delicious, you want to be a guest of Vianne's shop to drink the thick hot chocolate and eat the delicate tasty chocolates.

Definitely the best drama of that year. Five full stars.
(And ten stars to the producers who have decided to produce this instead of a Rambo-type film.)

10/10
