Fall in love with chocolate

On a cold day, Wei An Luoxue brought her fatherless daughter to a quiet town and opened a chocolate shop opposite the church. They were moving all the time, from one place to another. Wei An Luoxue is regarded by the noble faction represented by the mayor as a type of person who should not be contacted. In the eyes of the mayor, there is a rigid so-called pure life routine. With an illegitimate daughter, Wei An Luo Xue challenged the fragrant smell of chocolate to fill the sky above the town, and could accurately guess the taste of each customer's preference, and concocted chocolate suitable for each resident. All these make the mayor feel that the quietness of the town he runs has been broken, and he wants to drive away this woman and her chocolate shop.

This movie makes people see the strong mentality of Vien Roche played by Binoche who is not afraid, insists on his own things, and does not let the closed and dark life blind his own characteristics. Even though she was seen as an outlier, even though other residents were warned by the mayor not to go to her chocolate shop, Vianne Roche insisted on what she had. And in the end, the victory brought true laughter back to the townspeople.

There are many movies that praise the fear of power and self-reliance, and this movie lays out this theme lightly. In the movie, the charming chocolate is used throughout the film from beginning to end, and the fragrance of chocolate is blindly used to dissolve the new house where everyone is imprisoned. It is everyone's right to pursue happiness. Under the long-term spiritual unity of the mayor, this seemingly peaceful small town area has long lost the sound of people's laughter. The pursuit of inner happiness reflected in this film is diffused through the rich chocolate aroma.

In addition to expressing the theme with clean lines, the film also attracts the hero and heroine and the chocolate that appears at any time. Johnny Depp's appearance is arranged very later, and his role is not much, but his role as Gypsy Rocks is very individual. The wild charm, the handsomeness of the guitar, and the wandering temperament are used in Johnny Depp to make this excellent actor the icing on the cake. Needless to say about the heroine Binoche, I watched this movie because of Binoche, and my personal love for her is like the endless rain in the south, which is slender and slender. While watching this movie, I was greedy a few times. For someone who hardly buys chocolate, the intoxicated expressions of people enjoying chocolate are deeply stimulating to my nerves. I went to buy Jindi on the same day, and I have a lot of aftertastes.

The stories drawn from the collision of old and new ideas bring thoughts and are worth watching.

    There are no plots of ups and downs, a little hypnosis, a little bit of sleep... The lines can make people enlighten, especially at the end of the film: We still have many towns that have not been to, and there are many people who are not helpful, no matter how many, let it be. The north wind blows away... Director Lasse Hallström, who has filmed films such as "Different Sky", "The Law of Cider House", and "Shipping News", can always grasp things other than love, or more important than love.

Chocolat quotes

  • Armande Voizin: "Will she never have done, then, That ghoul queen of a million dead bodies? I see myself again, skin rotten with mud and pest, Worms in my armpits and in my hair." It's perfectly wretched, isn't it?

    Luc Clairmont: Perfectly.

  • Vianne Rocher: You've never really told me what the problem is - between you and Caroline.

    Armande Voizin: 'Cause it's none of your damn business. I'm an embarrassment to her. I swear. I read dirty books. I eat and drink what I like. And sin of sins, I refuse to go to Les Mimosas.

    Josephine: When I was a kid, we called it Le Mortoir. It's a nursing home for old... It's in Toulouse.

    Armande Voizin: Caroline loves the thought of a nurse with a clipboard recording my bowel movements.
