In her very unusual chocolate shop Vianne begins to create mouth-watering confections that almost magically inspire the straitlaced villagers to abandon themselves to temptation and happiness! But it is not until another stranger the handsome Roux (Johnny Depp - Sleepy Hollow) arrives in town that Vianne is finally able to recognize her own desires!. Director: Lasse Hallstrm. Format: DVD. Format Size: Widescreen. Runtime: 122 mins. Language: English. Region code: Region 1 (United States Canada Bermuda U.S. territories). Discs: 1. Rating: PG-13. Genre: Drama. Subgenre: Comedy.
