Rachel Portman is the featured guest on this Score to Screen podcast. The Chocolat composer opens up about how she crafted the woodwind heavy score that features melodies inspired by French villages and the indulgence of chocolate. Portman tells us about her guilty pleasure eating ample chocolate while scoring the film. Adapted from the novel by Joanne Harris, Chocolat is a fun-loving fable about how just one taste of life’s pleasures can change a person, a relationship, town.  It is a tale of temptation, repression and the liberating powers of the senses – the comedic story of an escalating small-town war sparked by the passions and fears aroused by the arrival of a mysterious chocolate shop. Starring Juliette Binoche, Judi Dench, Alfred Molina, Lena Olin and Johnny Depp, Chocolat is a David Brown production of a Lasse Hallström film, presented by Miramax Films. British composer Rachel Portman became the first female composer to win both an Outstanding Music Composition Academy Award for Emma and a Primetime Emmy Award for Bessie. She received two Academy Nominations for The Cider House Rules and Chocolat, which also earned her a Golden Globe Nomination. Rachel was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2010 and is an honorary fellow of Worcester College, Oxford. She has written stage and concert works, among them commissions from the BBC Proms and Houston Grand Opera. The Score to Screen podcast series is produced and hosted by Crossover Media's Max Horowitz. Listen to the Chocolat Soundtrack here. Listen to the official Rachel Portman Spotify playlist here.
