Willy Wonker and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
A wonderful morality take based on the Roald Dahl book. He in fact wrote the screenplay too for this beautiful film. Gene Wilder is perfect in the role of Willy Wonder. A capricious and childlike eccentric that believes in the power of good.
Better in some many ways that the remake. This is really a musical the the whole family can enjoy.
Wonderful nostalgia and superb wonderment for children that discover it for the first time.
2 screenings – 10th and 31st March at 14.30 PM. In English with Dutch subtitles.
