Chocolat - Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, France

This magical movie features three of my favorite things - Johnny Depp, chocolate, and small-town Europe. Enchanting characters are brought to life by a cast that also includes Juliette Binoche, Alfred Molina, Judi Dench, and Lena Olin. The movie was filmed on location in the medieval village of Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, near Dijon, in the Burgundy region of France. If the region's famous wine and mustard tempt you to visit, stop at Flavigny to try some of the local aniseed balls. Explore the narrow streets and winding staircases as you relive some scenes from "Chocolat" and create your own adventures in one of the most beautiful villages in Burgundy. Buy the movie "Chocolat" online from Amazon.com.
