What type of Chocalate do you like... Milk or Dark semi sweet?

Rating: 8/10 (31 December 2007)

Chocolate comes in two basic flavors Dark is rich and bitter sweet, milk chocolate is sweet and many people think of this and only this when the word is used.
This story is dark chocolate pure and simple. I for one prefer open ended stories that allow the viewer the freedom to imagine and write the ending how they see fit this movie allows for this.
The entire movie is focused on the journey that a newly widowed woman undergoes along with the people closest to her.
Can a long dead husband through help and the time machine that written words represent help his wife's journey? Is his passing similar by accident or purpose to her father's sudden disappearance? Is the journey through life we go through always fraught with possibilities forks in our paths? If you want pure comedy and happiness this film is not for you its' not zany but if you like bittersweet chocolate and have an active imagination it might be for you, but remember dark chocolate is not all together sweet.
