Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory

(U)

It's everybody's non-pollutionary, anti-institutionary, pro-confectionery factory of fun!

Thirty-five years after this merry movie charmed audiences with a colourful mix of song, humour and life lessons, the Candy Man still wields magic, especially now in a vibrant new print with a soundtrack in true stereo.

From the classic Roald Dahl story comes a lip-smacking delight with jolly tunes, among them The Candy Man and Pure Imagination. With a golden ticket young Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) wins a tour of the factory of wily mogul Wonka (Gene Wilder) and run by his Oompa-Loompa crew. There Charlie, his Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson) and others discover a kind heart is a finer possession than a sweet tooth. Don't let the tour leave without you!

Gene Wilder is brilliant in this movie, and the emphasis is more on him, rather than the books version being centered on Charlie. The story line is great too, its about greed, selfishness and dreams coming true!!! Highly recommended for anybody of any age!
