1971 | DCP | USA | D: Mel Stuart
A chocolate egg hunt will take place in the heritage courtyard at 1.45 pm, followed by the screening at 2 pm.
Imagination is limitless and consequences are exacting when Young Charlie Bucket wins a golden ticket to tour Willy Wonka’s mysterious chocolate factory. As each child succumbs to temptation, the story sharpens into a moral fable about greed, kindness and reward. The classic musical fantasy is based on Roald Dahl’s children’s novel and features Gene Wilder shining as Willy Wonka. Balancing whimsy with menace, the film’s enduring appeal lies in its ability to enchant while simultaneously unsettle its audience.
‘A children’s fantasy with a dark edge that never talks down to its audience.’ - Janet Maslin, The New York Times
