Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory: dir Mel Stuart (1971)

The original and still the best musical version of Roald Dahl’s classic story of Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum), a little boy with no money but a good heart, who dreams wistfully of being able to buy the candy that other children enjoy. Then he wins one of five Golden Tickets to visit the mysterious chocolate factory owned by the eccentric Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder) with the chance to win a lifetime supply of chocolate … Another goodie from Cinema Space’s free programming.
