An Inspirational Story In The Rich Tradition Of Music Of The Heart And Mr. Holland's Opus, The Chorus Has Moved Critics Everywhere To Declare It One Of The Year's Very Best Films! When He Takes A Job Teaching Music At A School For Troubled Boys, Clément Mathieu Is Unprepared For Its Harsh Discipline And Depressing Atmosphere. But With Passion And Unconventional Teaching Methods, He's Able To Spark His Students' Interest In Music And Bring Them A Newfound Joy! It Also Puts Him At Odds With The School's Overbearing Headmaster, However, Locking Mathieu In A Battle Between Politics And The Determination To Change His Pupils' Lives!

By getting nominated for Academy Awards in both the Foreign Language Film and Best Song categories, Les Choristes (The Chorus) made a rare (for a European film) double impression at the 2004 Oscars. This sentimental tale follows the arrival of a new teacher at a remote boys school in 1949 France (the war is a largely unspoken but ghostly presence). With disciplinary problems rampant, and the policies of the old-fashioned headmaster not helping, Monsieur Mathieu decides to introduce choral singing as a way to bridge the gap with his students. You don't need a crystal ball to figure out where this will go, although the movie uses its atmospheric location and lush vocal arrangements well. Bald, dumpy Gerard Jugnot provides a refreshingly offbeat hero (though securely in the traditions of the My Most Memorable Teacher movie); he's sort of a younger Philippe Noiret. Director Christophe Barratier works in the winsome-cute mode that makes a certain kind of French movie into an overly sweet bon bon, although at least this bon bon sings. --Robert Horton
