About
In this classic adaptation of Roald Dahl’s tale, young Charlie (Peter Ostrum) wins a golden ticket to a fantastical confectionary factory along with a small group of children from around the world.
Gene Wilder chews up the scenery as the eccentric and enigmatic chocolatier Willy Wonka. Featuring a handful of memorable tunes, the mysterious oompa-loompas and a touch of industrial espionage, colours explode off the screen as the children encounter this ‘world of pure imagination’.
