Fun fact its joe biden
This was filmed in West Germany in Munich (at the time Germany was divided post WW2)
Also the movie "the snow piercer" has elements from this film.
Tinker: "a person who makes a living by travelling from place to place mending pans and other metal utensils."
@MaryCherryOfficial You are such a FOX Mary . 😘
Gene Wilder insisted on the limp to a flip scene because he wanted everyone to know that Wonka could not be trusted
And indeed, he keeps up a false facade the entire movie until Charlie wins. It's an incredible performance by Gene.
That's my favorite tidbit of this movie 😊
Wasn't it also the first time the kids were meeting Gene? I thought I read that they were also unaware of this prank and it made it a lot less intimidating for the actors when he opened up with a fun gotcha.
@@10INTMthere were nervous beyond belief… it was an extremely tight filming schedule, and the kids were afraid Gene had hurt his leg.
Plus, the beginning scene in the candy shop, where the owner accidentally clocks a kid in the head with a swinging counter door.
Gene wilder is the true Willy Wonka!
Yeah, I can only ever see gene as wonka.
I need no other⭐️
You're damn right
*I wonder if the remake explains how 20-something Timothee Chalamet's Wonka is retiring and giving the factory to a kid.*
I don't understand why they keep remaking it. The weirdness of everything and sociopathic Wonka makes the movie what it is. A remake is never going to capture that magic.
On rewatch, if you focus on Gene, you can see his entire persona is an act up until Charlie returns the gobstopper. His whole demeanor flips after Charlie 'wins' and we finally get to see the real Wonka for the last few minutes of the movie. It's an incrediblely nuanced performance by Gene. RIP to a treasure.
No
He was such a great actor and gave up movies early.
No.
@@andrewr311Gave up movies early? He was in several movies during the 70’s and 80’s. He was also a whole lot older by the 90’s. His wife died and then he stopped working.
@@taoist32 He said: "If something comes along that's really good and I think I would be good for it, I would be happy to do it. But not too many came along," Wilder said. "I mean, they came along for the first 15, 18 films, but I didn't do that many." I am sure some of it was age too
This movie is a childhood favorite of mine I never get tired of rewatching this film. And Gene Wilder will always be my Willy Wonka. RIP Gene Wilder
Gene Wilder was hesitant to sing the song Pure Imagination, because he felt like he wasn't singer.
And now, the song became such an Icon.
R.I.P Gene Wilder.
I used some of the lines from this song in my high school yearbook "senior quote," under my picture: "Close your eyes... Make a wish... Count to Three..." That brought my mother to tears when she first saw it. She never had any idea that I borrowed it from this movie. lol
Your comment was so great until you spoiled it with bringing up Gene Wilder's death. Do you also watch The Wizard of Oz and go "RIP everyone involved in making this movie"? Everyone has a limited time on this planet, let's just enjoy his fantastic work.
This movie came out in 1971 and NERDS candy wasn't released until 1983...
I eat NERDS for breakfast.
@@jimshreve83is that why you’re so nerdy? 😜
@@jimshreve83 i eat green berets
I kept shouting that at my computer screen every time Mary lamented over the lack of Nerds in the movie. lol
Just another example of people saying things online that make no sense...not you but marry cherry.
Although the kid who played Charlie didn't get into movies much he grew up to become a veterinarian. His personality in interviews seems as wholesome as Charlie was portrayed too.
I've seen interviews from maybe a few years ago with Peter Ostrum. After this film's success, he was offered a three picture deal, but he turned it down. I think his veterinary practice specializes in horses and cows.
Sucks that the actress who played Violet died
@@nsasupporter7557 she was literally 62 years old when she died lol. Thats a pretty decent life.
@@user-br1cm5gr7eThat is an incredibly young age for a woman to die
How to feel old - a recently retired vetenerian
This is the best version. No one can beat Gene Wilder’s version of Wonka. He’s a bit unhinged but somehow charming. Johnny Depp is a great actor, but his portrayal of Wonka was too cold.
Johnny's portrayal of Wonka was exactly as he is in the book, a sociopath...
Agreed.
@@krashd So was Gene. Johnny was just copying Michael Jackson. He just try to be more PEDO type
PERIOD! End of discussion. That Burton garbage is next to blasphemous.
@@krashd And naturally, it was a disaster for modern audiences. This movie may have been less faithful to the original book, but it was, in my opinion, AN IMPROVEMENT! Can't say that about many movies that deviated from the source material, but this is one of them.
The children weren't allowed to see the Chocolate room before filming the scene, so their reaction to seeing the set for the first time is genuine.
RIP Gene Wilder.
And all the actors who played the parents as well as Denise Nickerson who played Violet. She passed away in 2019
"You stole fizzy lifting drinks! You bumped into the ceiling which now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get nothing! You lose! Good day, sir! "
The last three lines of that rant are used in lots of memes nowadays. Practically this entire film has become one giant meme at this point! That's LEGENDARY, if you ask me!
The random knife guy at the beginning would have been the dude who rolls his cart around town, sharpening knives and scissors and whatever for folks.
Hence a Tinker.
"What is this Wonka, some kind of fun house?"
"Why, having fun?"
My head exploded as I came to the realization that you have not seen ANY Gene Wilder Movies - Well Mary, you're in for a real treat... 3 GREAT COMEDIES of the great Mel Brooks starring Gene Wilder, in chronological order - The Producers - Blazing Saddles - Young Frankenstein ---- all of which are a must watch for any lover of films and comedies. I'm sure there are probably others who might comment likewise. You can thank us later.
second that
Hear No Evil, See No Evil
Agreed
The first Gene Wilder movie I have ever seen was Silver Streak.
@@PorscheRacer14that’s what I was going to say. Great flick.
While we were introduced to the TV kid, you wondered what kind of games we had in 1971. The video game Pong was still 6 years in the future. We had board games, card games and sports. That's it. If someone wanted to re-watch a movie, there was no such thing as a VHS (or Betamax). Back in the day, to watch a movie a second time, we had to wait for it to show again in the cinema or on the TV. For those of us who were desperate because the story was THAT GOOD, there were books. The Roald Dahl books are hysterical! If you get a chance, read "Charlie And The Great Glass Elevator."
If I am not mistaken 1971 was the first home game console the Magnavox Odyssey
@@johnkelly90 Pong, and the Magnavox Odyssey, actually both came out in 1972. So a year after this film released and probably 2 years after it was filmed. No home video games yet. The first arcade game, Space War, did release in 1971 but certainly wasn't available in homes. Prior to that there were a few computer games created by programmers but they weren't commercial products and few were distributed in any way.
@@andrewthornton2884 thank you… you are correct.
Yup. Years before video games would become the destruction of youth and the future... it was TV. Dungeons and Dragons was also far in to the future time for religious pearl-clutching. Luckily, they still had rock 'n roll to continue demonizing.
"That's right, in my day video games were called books!"
This is the definitive version of Willy Wonka, the Burton one is a very distant second.
Burton's version of Wonka (i.e. Johnny Depp version) seems more sinister where Gene Wilder's version of Wonka is more charming and endearing.
Third now that Timmy has one out now.
@@Dobi714 The Timothy movie is a prequel to the Johnny Depp version (i.e. the accurate version.)
@@krashd You think Tim was channeling Depp more than Wilder for his performance? I feel he had homages to Wilder throughout the movie.
THANK YOU
When you find out at the end that "Slugworth" was actually working for Wonka, it makes a lot more sense how he got to each of the golden ticket winners so quickly; of course, Wonka would know where each golden ticket was being shipped to and could send him to those locations.
So he knowingly only shipped them to three countries?
After seeing all different versions of Willy wonka. I have to say that gene wilder is the most unhinged out of all of them. BUT….that is what makes him stand out the most and love it lol
My friend call him wonky wanka. Hee Hee Hee
Gene Wilder IS Willy Wonka! ❤️. He is for me. Kinda a quirky role model! Who tests and challenges people. But with the best of intentions at heart! 😊. The Tunnel sequence for me is one of the BEST standout moment in the film. Yes it is DARK. But INCREDIBLY funny too! 🤣. Just hearing him deliver that line near the end of the film: “So shines a good deed in a weary world”. So deeply touching and incredible! Gene. R.I.P. Your kind is sorely missed from this world! 😊❤️🙌
Gene Wilder's best work is Young Frankenstein. Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder came together and made perfection.
And that's saying something considering how great he is. But YF is fantastic!
Mel called it the greatest performance he ever directed
My favorite is "See no Evil Hear no Evil" with Wilder and Richard Pryor
Great movie. I prefer Blazing Saddles when it comes to Mel Brooks
@@jlew13jlstir crazy
A fun fact: During the trippy tunnel scene, Gene forgot his lines and start singing random things, all the other actors though he was losing his mind so their faces and screams were genuine. In addition the yellow cup he bites into wasn’t actually edible it was pure wax.
Fun fact Marilyn Manson did a version of the tunnel scene and it’s so so cool. Made even creepier. In a good way. As it could have been for the film iMO
And sense of an adventure without over think8 g every situation with non sense morals. That aren’t relevant for a film.
Movies are make believe folks, never ever have they been meant to be taking serious as if real life. It’s called movies for a reason not reality.
Does anyone else get annoyed when people know a meme before the real things. Lol kills me that people are obsessed and use memes yet don’t know their references. It’s so extremely sad. This generation needs to figure things out better and watch in the right order.
That how you get herpes. Lol girl it’s a fantasy film not reality you can’t get sick or catch things in these worlds. They don’t really exist. Lmao serious it’s called make believe and times were also different. Please understand these concepts and facts.
I met Gene Wilder in the 80s when I worked at a tennis shop in LA near UCLA. Super nice guy and a great memory.
Did he touch you?
Everything I have heard about Gene Wilder is that he was a sweet, gentle man. I don't doubt it.
@@Finn_MacCool He shook my hand.
I loved this version, the best big fan of Gene Wilder, especially Young Frankenstein
She should absolutely watch Young Frankenstein. He's brilliant in it.
Gene would only do Young Frankenstein if Mel Brooks didn't appear in it.
@@ronald-xs7sp He was right to ask for that. I love Mel Brooks, but he wasn't right for that film.
@@ronald-xs7spThat’s the rumor and I hold that against Gene
The "knife man" used to be a common job. He would walk around ringing a bell and housewives would bring out dull knives to be sharpened.
The actors playing Veruca Salt and Mike Teevee did a tour during showings of the movie around the US at the Alamo Drafthouse cinema chain. When they came to San Francisco, I went to see them, and got to meet both of them after the show. They were both really personable and fun/funny. I revealed to Julie Dawn Cole that I'd had a bit of a kid-crush on her (I'm slightly younger than the kids in the movie), to which she said "Well, I AM single, you know..." ;-) I'm sure she was just kidding around, but I wonder what would've happened if I had asked her out. 😀
Lol, I had a crush on Veruca back in my childhood days as well
😂
As much as I love Tim Burton's version and how accurate it is to the book, this will always be the best version.
That movie sucks
Charlie putting the gobstopper back on Wonka's desk in the end is one of the purest, innocent and wholesome moments in film history.
I used to work with the woman who played Violet Beauregard. She was a incredibly sweet woman who had lots of cool stories about shooting the movie
Did she ever talk about playing Amy Jennings on Dark Shadows too?
The way Wonka so cheerfully said "Wrong!" never fails to make me laugh
Apparently Veruca Salt's actor was the sweetest nicest person and had difficulty being that awful to everyone. The "I Want It Now" sequence was filmed on her 13th birthday.
The creepy dude is there because he's planting the Golden tickets. The Candy man reaches down behind the counter and makes sure Charlie gets the bar with the golden ticket in it.
How does the "Candy Man" know that Charlie, who has literally never come into his shop to buy a candy bar before, is going to ask for a *second* candy bar after buying the first? This is something that Charlie doesn't even know himself.
Every time I hear the Candy Man Can song I keep envisioning Tony Todd lurking in the background of the candy store ready to bisect someone.
Remember, he only appears if you speak his name at your reflection fives times. I hear he also gets you if you deny his existence.
@@therivster You mean god?
God has nothing to do with Candyman
@@therivster He gets you if you deny his existence hee hee hee 😆
@@TalaCruzPraise Klombadrov.
28:56 - "We are the music makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams," is a quote from a poem:
"Ode" written by the English poet Arthur O'Shaughnessy and first published in 1873.
The Tim Burton Wonka doesn't even compare to this. I never need to see that one again, but I definitely rewatch the Gene Wilder Wonka every few years. Loved it since I was a kid. And Gene Wilder just got funnier as I got older and could pick up what he was putting down.
I'll watch the new Wonka again but I feel the same about the remake
Mary, if you haven't seen it yet, you MUST watch Blazing Saddles! Gene Wilder gives yet another all-star performance in it. It was filmed in 1974. Hilarious movie! In one scene, Gene adlibs and causes the main actor to break character by laughing, but the director thought the scene was better that way and kept it in!
You'll notice that all the rides have just enough seats for the remaining people. He 100% KNEW there'd be casualties and planned accordingly.
You've now been introduced to one of cinemas most twisted villains: Grandpa Joe.
🎵Come with me, and you’ll be, in a woooorld of pure imagination!🎵
First movie i saw in the theater at (5) years old. No one will ever replace Gene Wilder as Wonka. Willy Wonka of the 70’s is the Goonies of the 80’s as Sandlot is the 90’s. Pure magic!!!!
It was my first as well. It was also one of the first films I saw with my wife at the theatre (years later) when we started dating.
You should watch some of the movies with Richard Pryor and Gene :)
"Hear No Evil, See No Evil"
"Stir Crazy"
"Silver Streak"
They're all HILARIOUS!! (Hear No Evil being my favorite) 😊

@@robunkle8792 "How could we get the mens rea!?!" 😂🤣😂🤣 "MY GOD! NOOOOO!!!" 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@robunkle8792I suppose a F*** is out of the question?
The poor child extra that gets hit in the face with the counter at the candy store will always be my favourite movie blooper.
This film was an iconic memory from my youth. Great film.
There are theories that Wonka sent the chocolate so the specific kids would find them. Then each room was basically a test for one specific child. He had really chosen Charlie as his successor, but of course Charlie also failed. But the true test was the everlasting gobstopper/Slugworth thing. Charlie did the right thing and this passed the test.
Willy Wonka is actually Rhaegar Targaryen!
Gene Wilder played the part brilliantly he was *THE* Willy Wonka
The IRL Wonka Candy company was created due to this film. Quaker Oats wanted to start a candy line, so they funded the production of this film and acquired the naming rights, and thus Wonka Candy was born. The chocolate bars were never terribly successful, but the company created and acquired so many iconic candies that endured long after Quaker Oats sold them off.
My opinion, this movie is more family oriented than the newer one.
My belief in this one is the kids didn't get the tickets by random. Willy and "slugworth" had already scouted the kids out and slugworth was able to plenty the candy with the golden tickets so these certain kids got them. That explains how he was able to be right there when the kids found the tickets each time around the world. Each place they went to in the factory was all set up ahead of time with each kids weakness to test each kid, with the final test at the end with the gobstopper. Well that's just my belief.
Well reasoned!
But why would they deliberately choose those kids?
I'm guessing you mean the remake because the prequel Wonka was just as wholesome and family oriented as the first
I love that the director, Mel Stuart, had experience filming documentaries so basically the first part of the film has satire elements with a documentary feel to it.
Also, comparing special fx from a 1971 film to a 2005 film is hilarious haha! Its not horrible considering the budget haha
I'm glad you reacted to the teacher moving the tests to Friday. Nobody really says anything, but every line that guy delivers is so 🤪
Fun Fact: Ernest Cline, the author of Ready Player One (the film adaptation you watched a while back) used Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory and it's source novel as an inspiration for his novel. When the film adaptation for RP1 was being worked on, Steven Spielberg actually approached Gene Wilder, who had retired from acting, to play Halliday for the adaptation. Wilder declined the role and eventually passed away while the filming of the RP1 adaptation was going on. To maintain the connection, the RP1 trailers used "Pure Imagination" from the 1971 film.
Does anyone else think that the psychedelic boat-ride came after the "edibles" room or is it just me?
The blue face paint went so deep into Violets pores that when she was in school, her face turned purple randomly.
What ! ? 😮
25:15 🤣I can't watch him howl during the boat ride without thinking of the hilarious HISHE vid of it
"Pure Imagination", is my favorite song. 🎶
Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson) starred in the sitcom, "Chico And The Man", after this film. The television show also starred the late Freddie Prinze.
You can see a young Jack Albertson in the original 1947, "Miracle On 34th Street". He plays a postal worker sorting mail in the mail room. ✌️❤️🌹
Jack Albertson won an Oscar as well for Best Supporting Actor for THE SUBJECT WAS ROSES (1968) (which co-starred Patricia Neal, who was married to Roald Dahl (CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY novelist and this film's screenwriter) at the time). Guess who was nominated alongside him when he won the Oscar? None other than Gene Wilder (Willy Wonka) himself, who was nominated for THE PRODUCERS (1968) that year.
a "tinker" in the shorthand for a "tinsmith", who would fix things made of metal. very common that these "tinkers" would travel from town to town offering their services. in the uk its now viewed as a outdated term for irish travellers thanks to how common an occupation it was for irish men.
Sammy Davis actually wanted to play the candy store owner, but they said no, because they thought a star in it would take away from the movie.
He did sing his own version of The Candy Man song!
@@ifeelpretty5790And it went to #1 (in the U.S.) in June of 1972.
This movie was my childhood growing up in the 90’s
17:41 - Wonka does his cane and somersault bit. "Pranked you! Grampa Joe, you know what it's like!" LOL!!
Fun fact: The actor who plays the candy store manager (Aubrey Woods) also appears in the 1972 Doctor Who story “Day of the Daleks” as a villain.
in the commentary where all the kids watch the movie for the 40th anniversary someone asks what ever happened to him and Veruca's actress mentions that she had just done a stage production with him in the last 8 months.
Hi Mary!😊 "The Candy Man" song is by Sammy Davis Jr. "Nerds" were not released until 1983, more than a decade after this film. Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson) is best known from the 70s sitcom "Chico and the Man" with Freddie Prinze, father of Freddie Prinze Jr. For people that grew up with this film, Gene Wilder is the quintessential Willy Wonka!🏆 His passive reactions when the kids get in trouble is very funny!😆 Great reactions to the original Willy Wonka film, Mary!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏
Jack Albertson is also the mail worker in “Miracle on 34th Street” who comes up with the idea of sending all the Santa Claus letters to the courthouse.
Also, Violet Beauregard is played by Denise Nickerson, who was also featured in the 60s supernatural soap opera “Dark Shadows.” Roy Kinnear (Mr. Salt) was a British character actor who was in everything from Hammer Dracula movies to “Watership Down.” He was also in the Beatles movie “HELP!”
@@gerstelb Denise Nickerson was also one of the Short Circus, the teen "singing group" on The Electric Company.
Yes, they're actually freaked. They thought Gene had genuinely snapped. And the words are actually straight from the book.
I'll stand up for Cheer up Charlie, love that song
It's a beautiful song, and it was my first favorite song from the score after I had seen the movie for the first time upon its initial release in 1971.
To this day, the song "Cheer Up, Charlie" sucker-punches me right in the feels.
Did you notice that the boat only had enough space for the group, without Augustus and his mother, and the vehicle only had enough seats for the surviving four people and Wonka?
Mary
Gene improvised his entrance to the kids as they get ready go in the factory.
The fact that so many people call him Gene, as if he's an old friend, really speaks to the kind of impact he had.
Charlie's reaction to Wonkas outburst in his office is real. The director forbade Gene from telling him about this scene beforehand, and Gene really wanted to, because he felt so bad.
Timothee Charlotte was Awesome as the younger Willy Wonka and would have made Gene Wilder Proud With his performance.
He was brilliant
The movie title was changed from the books title to promote a candy bar they were coming out with, called Wonka. Only problem: it went belly up very quickly because it kept melting too fast, even when it was already inside the wrapper. And then Wonka was bought by Nestle, which gave us the candy line we know and love today.
Gene wilder willy wonka is definitely in top 5 movies of all time. Especially with the story behind it all. Im glad they are making new ones because...theyll never be able to beat this 10/10.
Wonka knew was going to happen to one of the kids at the beginning. The boat was full when they all got on there was no more room. Where was Augustus and his mother going to sit?🇦🇺🦘🍒
2:37 - I remember hearing of at least one case where a property was accidentally made public domain by getting the wrong Roman number for the copyright date.
1. I first saw it when I was 10.
2. Roald Dahl the book author was a well-known LSD user. (you can see why). He also didn't like this adaptation of his book. That's why we got the Tim Burtin/Johnny Depp remake.
3. The Umpa Lumpas told the reverent portion of the story. Anything beyond that would have been unnecessary and overkill.
4. I suspect Wonka knew which children would win the tickets (lessons for our behalf) because Slugworth/Mr. Wilkenson was at the scene almost immediately.
5. Many people (especially women) seem to get a creepy feeling from Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka.
6. This is the only roll Peter Ostrum/Charlie. He's now a veterinarian.
7. After reading the script, Gene Wilder said he would take the role of Willy Wonka under one condition: that he would be allowed to limp, then suddenly somersault in the scene when he first meets the children. When director Mel Stuart asked why, Wilder replied
that having Wonka do this meant that "from that time on, no one will know if things are real or not." Stuart asked, "If I say no, you won't do the picture?" and Wilder said, "I'm afraid that's the truth."
8. Fun fact: Veruca/Julie Dawn Cole didn't have any adult with her when they went to Germany to film the movie so Gene Wilder himself stepped in to make sure she was taken care of.😎
9. You can get away with anything in a musical.
1970's games were called "Go outside, and stay out of the street".
Bean feast: any festive occasion with a meal and perhaps an outing. Usually in a idyllic setting.
Special place in my heart for this film. It meant a lot when I was a kid.
This movie is just perfection. I was introduced to it as a child by my grandmother, who I only realized in adulthood may have liked musicals just as much as I did. Gene Wilder and his soft voice are a warm hug.
A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.
I haven't seen this in years so I'm not sure how I forgot about it, but that is a fantastic quote.
So many young rractors are creaped out by the guy with the knives at the beginning but he is just a Tinker. A guy that sells his knives door to door. Here in the UK we had tinkers until quite recently. He would walk along our road and either sell his knives or sharpen the knives of householders.
The reason “Mr. Slugworth” was not the Tim Burton version was because Roald Dahl was livid over that plot line because in no portion of his book is that “test”
Those were not bees in the gum machine. Those were wasps. And the kid that played Mike let them loose. Just one of the examples of how he was actually a nightmare to work with.
even as a child, Grandpa Joe calling Wonka a crook after stealing the drink pissed me off.
fun fact, the director was a documentary film maker.
I love this movie. I don’t care how different people say this is from the book. This is my Wonka. Gene Wilder is the true Wonka to me and he always will be.
1:13 - "Good morning starshine, the Earth says, hello!" - That is from the song "Good morning starshine" from the 1967 rock musical "Hair." Also a top 40 hit when singer "Oliver" covered it shortly after. (MANY of the songs from that musical went on to chart-topping singles, recorded by various artists of the time). So Johnny Depp, in character as Wonka in 2005, was quoting from a 1967 song lyric. Just in case you, or anybody else, was unaware of that factoid.
Tim Burton's _Charlie and the Chocolate Factory_ was it's own (nice) translation from novel. But Gene Wilder is why Timothée Chalamet was told to channel into the recent _Wonka_ movie. A nice sequel to the recent movie could easily lead into Gene Wilder's movie.
Also, fun fact there was a dwarf shortage where they filmed in germany so they had to ship a whole bunch of them in from Turkey to play the oompa loompas
Just the term "dwarf shortage" is funny lol
@@bryanb3352 It's not funny when you think about why there would be a dwarf shortage in Germany in 1971.
The original book was revised before the movie was made by the author. In the original book the Oompa-Loompa’s skin was described as almost black to roseywhite,and they came from Africa not “Loompaland" This is not a criticism diffent times and generations had different life experiences
@@robfinlay8058 still funny
Victims of the Holocaust as well.
Grandpa is the villain of the movie.
Without a doubt
Guy fakes being on bedrest for decades and refuses to accept when he's at fault in the end. Taking the drinks was his idea. Good on Charlie for giving the old man a demonstration of morality and honesty.
I don’t know if he was a true villain. Maybe a cynic. He’s been through all a man can go through when life doesn’t give you a break. Maybe because of his own fault but a villain? Nah.
@@joseesparza7488 He hasn't had a break? He stays in bed 24/7 for who knows how many years while apparently being able bodied and spending the family's menial funds on tobacco for himself.
@@bryanb3352 that’s one way to look at it!
So fun fan theory I saw on another reaction- The Candy Man does not get the candy bar he gives to Charlie from the counter it was in his pocket. The Candy Man works for Wonka and targeted Charlie.
On a rewatch, Wonka is silently screaming how much he can’t stand most of the children and their parents with every action and line he has. He’s not being random most of the time, he’s thinly veiling his disdain for them with his antics.
This movie is really good
Old tv,ols style music:well,it is 1971 Mary 🎩
There were no blue screens back then. It was all wire work and composite film footage. In camera tricks and such.
The green screen has been in use since the 1940s.
Indeed, matting effects are as old as when George Melies was making movies. Granted, they weren't used as regularly as they are today, but they definitely aren't something that weren't used until CGI became the norm. That said, CGI as it functions today has since made it more economical to shoot against an exposure screen than to build a set or shoot on location, whereas in the past, the exposure shots were often the most difficult ones to produce.
This is such a dark movie. Especially when you notice that, when they got in boat or "car", there was only enough seats for the kids and parents who were left. There was no room for Augustus and his Mom, in the boat. There was no room for Veruca and her Dad in the Wonka mobile. And, of course, each song fit the kid.
This film never fails to make me laugh hard and some of your comments during the reaction just added to the laughter! 🤣
Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein.
Gene Wilder's performance as the magical candy maker is perfection. RIP Gene Wilder
I've heard nothing but good things about the new one. I'm excited to see it. This is my favorite so far. They showed it to us on repeat in daycare. Gene Wilder played it mild, charming so it was inviting as a kid. Johnny Depp creeped me out like run, hide yo kids.. I couldn't even finish. 1 day. Lol
The original Wonka was filmed in West Germany with many German actors. Johnny Depp's version of Willy is actually based on Michael Jackson....
If you haven't read them, I suggest reading Roald Dahl's original books. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator were two of my favorite books in my childhood, along with James and the Giant Peach.
I love this move a whole lot more than the remake.
Fun fact: The actresses that played Violet and Veruca both had a crush on Peter Ostrum who played Charlie. They’d take turns for one of them to hang out with Ostrum while they weren’t acting.
The Golden ticket song isn't about Charlie or Joe... the song is about their situation. Living in hopelessness and despair and finally having a golden opportunity that changes everything.
