Overview

What happens when a man and a woman share a common passion? They fall in love. And this is what happens to Jean-René, the boss of a small chocolate factory, and Angélique, a gifted chocolate maker he has just hired. What occurs when a highly emotional man meets a highly emotional woman? They fall in love, and this is what occurs to Jean-René and Angélique who share the same handicap. But being pathologically timid does not make things easy for them. So whether they will manage to get together, join their solitudes and live happily ever after is a guessing matter.

Movies that truly have the capacity to delight - that amuse and lift the spirits and create a warm feeling - are rare. "Romantics Anonymous" is one of those rare delights.

It'll be too light and frothy for some tastes, but it's bound to leave you with a warm glow.

A mug of warm cocoa with marshmallow topping that produces a comfy feel-good glow.

An adorable, quirky chocolatier looking for love? One guess which country this heavily whimsical comedy hails from.

Boy meets girl. Boy likes girl. Girl faints and boy jumps out the bathroom window.
