 Written on September 14, 2008 Summary: Perfect There are a few movies I believe approach perfection: The Princess Bride, Errol Flynn's Robin Hood, Meet Joe Black, Young Frankenstein. If you're still reading, watch this movie. It has that 1940's look and pace, and the great classic acting earlier films often contained. It has a thoroughly modern sensibility, however, in the way the story is told and the depth you see in the characters. Reviewers often use the word "gentle" to describe this movie -- but the issues it deals with are nothing of the sort. You'll have to watch for yourself -- but I believe you'll feel better about the world when you've done so. Written on September 8, 2008 Summary: Perfect Date Movie This is a tale of what happens when the morality police get their judgments completely wrong. Still the movie makes it's point without clobbering viewers over the head. The movie, set in the mid-1900s, stars Depp as an kindhearted "pirate," and Binoche as a nomadic, chocolat making, single mother, (who is also step-mother to a "kangaroo.") The juxtaposition between characters main and sub, old and young, religious or not, is interesting to follow each has their own unique story to tell. Though set before my time, the movie's themes feel relevant long after the closing credits end. The scenery and soundtrack are wonderful start to finish and the movie's gentle, but steady flow is a joy to watch. This is a perfect date movie and yes, you will need a fireplace, some premium chocolat and a bottle of good French wine. Written on August 25, 2008 Summary: Wonderful characters! I love this film. Juliette Binoche is a joy as the town's newest resident, and her open ways are very foreign to some of her neighbors. Judi Dench is, as always, terrific. From a very personal perpective, Johnny Depp shows up too late in the film, but, as always, lives his role. This may not be a great film and some may feel it is hitting them too hard pointing out people's prejudices. But people do have them and it never hursts to remind us to look beyond the surface. Tjhe film does not treat dogmatic religion too kindly--but I don't have a problem with that. Written on July 31, 2008 Summary: Magic and chocolate Maybe there isn't much difference - but Vianne's is more magical than most. She spends her life as a wanderer, bringing with her chocolate recipes that descend from the Mayas, but with preparation to tempt the most refined Europeans. The story starts when she and her daughter wander into a small city in France that dates back to the middle ages. It's a walled city, filled with walled people, the kind affronted by opening a chocolate shop during Lent and nastily eager to note the mother's never-married state. But, with a lot of determination and a little magic, Vianne wins them over, one palate at a time. As she helps bring people together, heal rifts, and create second chances for the townspeople, one wonders why the charm doesn't work on her own life. Then, Roux (played by Johnny Depp) appears, even more of a wanderer than Vianne. Instant affinity arises between these two roamers, but instant enmity comes from the deep-rooted locals - how dare they not live lives as staid as the villagers' own? Based on chocolate, you just know that this has to end up as a feel-good movie; I'm not spoiling any surprises there. As in The Mistress of Spices, primal forces of the kitchen bring peace and happiness in the end. -- wiredweird Written on June 7, 2008 Summary: A film you will never forget! Delightfull, seductive, humorous, and bold would be the four main words to describe this film. A wonderfull story with great performences and wonderfull musical score by Rachael Potter. Juliette Binoche was terrefic, she was very adorable and so was Victoire Thivisol who played her daughter. Carrie-Anne Moss and Alfred Molina delivers a good performence as well and Judi Dench, she is brilliant as always. The film throws light on the simple pleasures of life, the life in towns in France. A film worth watching! |
