Love Crimes - Forty Years of French Film Noir: Merci Pour Le Chocolat May 8, 2008

Once again Isabelle Huppert graces a Claude Chabrol film with a stunning performance. Here she's the immensely generous heiress of a Swiss chocolate company who helps many charities. Huppert glows with contentment, having remarried virtuoso concert pianist Jacques Dutronc, eighteen years after they divorced due to youthful immaturity. The couple and their adolescent son (Rodolph Pauly) enjoy domestic tranquility in their county estate.
