About this movie

Take an unforgettable, uniquely magical, musical journey through the deliciously delightful, whimsically wonderful world of Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory. When eccentric candy man Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder) promises a lifetime supply of sweets and a tour of his chocolate factory to five lucky kids, penniless Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) seeks the priceless golden ticket that will make him a winner. Thanks to his Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson), Charlie gets the prize of his dreams! But a far more wonderful surprise than Charlie ever imagined awaits him. In a land of chocolate waterfalls, giant lollipops, edible flowers and, of course, Oompa Loompas, it's nonstop, mouth-watering fun in the timeless fantasy Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory.

They simply don't make them like this anymore. Probably one of my top 25 greatest movies. Really miss Gene Wilder, he was a class act all around.

I saw this movie 9 times the opening week. It's one of my favorite movies. The vibrancy of the film, the clarity of Gene Wilder's emotional performance, and the amazing set decoration for a movie that cost so little. It's a classic. But you'd be forgiven if you're too busy enjoying the thing to notice how wonderful it is. But it and watch it again and again.
