 Chocolat by Rachel Portman
Chocolat is an Oscar-worthy score that comes on the heels of another highly praised soundtrack from Rachel Portman, The Legend of Bagger Vance.
Chocolat, the score, like the movie, is a lighthearted in nature, but has at least one serious undertone.
Chocolat is sweet enough to provide a musical-buzz, while spicy enough to supplant anyone's need for romantic-potency-pills.

 Chocolat: A Ransom Movie Review   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The scenes in which Vianne stirs her chocolates on the stove are filmed with a delicious sensuality, and the feast given in Armande’s honor near the end of the film is warmly human and deeply inviting.
Or as Roger Ebert put it in his review: “Chocolat is about a war between the forces of paganism and Christianity, and because the pagan heroine has chocolate on her side, she wins.” By the end of the film, however, tolerance is achieved.
Chocolat is also a challenge to those of us who are committed to the gospel of Christ, that our faith would be winsome and joyfully welcoming, without compromise and full of grace.

 The Joanne Harris Website - Books: Chocolat
Chocolat begins with the arrival in a tiny French village of Vianne Rocher, a single mother with a young daughter, on Shrove Tuesday.
As the inhabitants of Lansquenet-sous-Tannes clear away the remains of the carnival which heralds the beginning of Lent, Vianne moves with her daughter into a disused bakery facing the church, where Francis Reynaud, the young and opinionated curé of the parish, watches her arrival with disapproval and suspicion.
Chocolat was my reaction against that; a plea for tolerance of others but also of ourselves, a reminder that to be fallible is both natural and allowed; that self-indulgence isn't always bad; that testing people to destruction isn't the way to make them better people.

 Filmtracks: Chocolat (Rachel Portman)
Chocolat: (Rachel Portman) Teaming up with the same director and crew of The Cider House Rules, for which the film and score were nominated for Academy Awards, Rachel Portman is once again placed in the role of producing sensitive music for a romantic drama.
Her score for Chocolat wraps up a strong year for Portman, who was propelled by the success of The Cider House Rules on to three more international album-caliber scores in 2000.
While Chocolat received the nomination from the Golden Globes, the critical and popular success for Portman was The Legend of Bagger Vance, a score for a film that went bust almost before its release.

 CHOCOLAT (PG-13): ChildCare Action Project (CAP) Media Analysis Report MAR21024
It is a war between the practitioners of "if it feels good, do it" and of righteousness; between hedonism and Christianity, rather with "Churchianity" (that which might be described as a system of worship and obedience doctrines which satisfy man but any adherence to the teachings and expectations of Jesus is coincidental, superficial, or counterfeited).
Chocolat is the age-old war between what hedonists say is good for you and obedience to God's Will.
Chocolat is also an exercise in interfering with the established way of life of a people in favor of a newcomer's beliefs and ethics [sound familiar?].

Chocolat is the second extreme darkhorse nominee in two years.
Chocolat presented the liberal case on religious freedom, and stuck it to the religious right, albeit in the form of an allegory.
On the other hand, the Chocolat villagers' "just because they're different" position is something which romanticizes, whitewashes, and distorts the reasons for prejudice, making all the river-rats into soulful innocents, and all the townspeople into narrow-minded fools.

 Chocolat. A Hollywood Jesus Movie Review   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The first parallel is that Chocolat is very international in its cast and crew: Director Lasse Hallstr?m, his wife Lena Olin and Peter Stormare from Sweden; Juliette Binoche and Leslie Caron from France, Alfred Molina and Judi Dench from Great Britain; Johnny Depp from the U.S.; Carrie-Anne Moss from Canada; Hugh O'Conor from Ireland.
Finally, the last thing that tells us this is the message of the movie is Lasse Hallström's basic philosophy of telling a story..."Find the most simple way to tell the story with the most honest expression!" That is what he did.
Chocolat is a simple as well as labirynthical kind of film.

 Chocolat
While the film may be packaged in a pretty box with some downright delicious talent, the film nonetheless proves that too much of the sweet stuff can lose its taste after a while.
Some of the townspeople are rejuvenated by her chocolate's euphoric qualities, but others, including the town's stuffy mayor (Alfred Molina), will stop at nothing until Vianne's shop is closed and she leaves town for good.
Ultimately, "Chocolat" is predictable and contrived, and it never fully blossoms into the emotionally gripping film that it wants to be.
