Chocolat (2000), is about a single mother, Vianne (played by Juliette Binoche), and her six-year-old daughter, who move to rural France and open a chocolate shop across the street from the local church. Soon, the townspeople are imbibing and enjoying the treats. When a group of river drifters visit the town, Vianne teaches the closed-minded townspeople something about acceptance, and in the process falls in love with Roux (played by Johnny Depp).

Chocolat was directed by Lasse Hallstrom, who captured the magical pairing of Binoche and Depp, actors who shared a palpable chemistry that was enhanced by the delectable delights in the film. 

The film Chocolat, which was adapted by Robert Nelson Jacobs from Joanne Harris’s popular novel, also stars Dame Judi Dench, Carrie-Anne Moss and Lena Olin.
