Chocolat (2000 film) Chocolat (] ) is a 2000 British-American romantic comedy-drama film based on the novel "Chocolat" by Joanne Harris, and was directed by Lasse Hallström. Adapted by screenwriter Robert Nelson Jacobs, "Chocolat" tells the story of a young mother, played by Juliette Binoche, who arrives at the fictional, repressed French village of Lansquenet-sous-Tannes with her six-year-old daughter and opens "La Chocolaterie Maya", a small chocolaterie. Her chocolate quickly begins to change the lives of the townspeople.
Billy Elliot the Musical Billy Elliot the Musical is a musical based on the 2000 film "Billy Elliot". The music is by Elton John, and the book and lyrics are by Lee Hall, who wrote the film's screenplay. The plot revolves around Billy, a British motherless boy who trades boxing gloves for ballet shoes. The story of his personal struggle and fulfillment are balanced against a counter-story of family and community strife caused by the 1984–85 UK miners' strike in County Durham, in North Eastern England. Hall's screenplay was inspired in part by A. J. Cronin's 1935 novel about a miners' strike, "The Stars Look Down", to which the musical's opening song pays homage.
