While watching the movie Chocolat, I learned so many new things about the French culture. The movie taught me that the French people really invented the art of chocolate. This does not necessarily mean that other countries are not good at making chocolate. It honestly just means that the French people really invented it as an art. Before, it was just a yummy thing that people were able to enjoy. Think about the first time you had chocolate. Were you taken to another place and time because of how good the chocolate was? That was the case for me. While that might seem like I am exaggerating, I really am not exaggerating in the slightest. The first time that I had chocolate I was very young. My dad is from Germany so I basically grew up with chocolate always in the house. This experience can be true for anyone though. To some people, chocolate is so good that they feel like they are taken to another world when they enjoy it. Like it did in my own life, chocolate also played a huge role in the movie Chocolat. Vianne and her daughter Anouk open up a very unusual chocolate shop in the town in France that they move to. No one truly knew the impact that these two characters would have on their small French town that they now called home. Like I said earlier, the French honestly invented the art of chocolate. This is why it has such a big role in this movie. It is important for all of the main characters and it is now the main source of income for Vianne and her daughter Anouk. I feel like chocolate is also important for this movie because it is something that really brings the whole town together and brings so much happiness to everyone.
