Overview: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, starring Johnny Depp as the quirky and silly chocolatier, Willy Wonka. This movie is not only a whacky and twisted remake directed by Tim Burton, but it is also a goldmine when it comes to analyzing the personality of Willy as an adult and how his flashbacks to his early childhood reveal why he acts the way he is. Willy’s father, Wilbur Wonka, was known throughout the town for his dentistry, he was referred to as the best dentist in town. As being
Is Willy Wonka the same character in the two films? What type of character do the two directors create? How does this impact the overall purpose of the film? In both the films, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Willy Wonka is someone who is crazy, cares for others and he tries to teach the children important life lessons, but his ideas of families is different in both films. In the original film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Willy Wonka cares a
Have you ever wanted to abandon your family in order to follow your dreams? Specifically, to make a major Chocolate Factory that ships all around the world? Well, that’s what Willie Wonka did! Over the course of the movie there were many goals, problems and hidden agendas that had to be faced. We found many questions that needed to be answered when we each went in depth with our own topic. So if you couldn’t tell we each portray a character that is in the movie, We were the understudies for our characters
Children are not stupid. Nothing seems to escape a small child’s notice. I make this observation because most children’s movies are not very good; they are witless and filled with contempt for their audiences. However, Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is one of the best films of its time. It has all the qualities a good film should have: it’s exciting, mentally stimulating and appeals to the kid inside of us all. The film, directed by Mel Stuart in 1971, is a children's musical comedy adapted
America was a very different country in 1971 when the original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was made than it was when the 2005 remake Charlie and the Chocolate Factory hit theaters. From 1971 to 2005 America’s technology had advanced greatly and the culture had changed as well. These two factors can likely explain why these two movies that closely follow the same story line have many differences. The most noticeable difference is the change in graphics and special effects. Another huge difference
Chocolate Factory, was an immediate box office success. Johnny Depp played a wonderful part as Willy Wonka in this movie. The book, originally published in 1964, was first made into a movie in 1971. In this movie, Gene Wilder played a remarkable role of Willy Wonka as well. Despite the many differences in the actors, both had huge success playing the role of the wacky, chocolate loving Mr. Wonka. One of the differences in the actors was age. The actors were similar in actual age when playing the
Milton Hershey was and still is one of the greatest chocolate makers of all time. He was the man who turned a bare patch of land into a thriving chocolate town and pulled everybody through the Great Depression. But, Hershey is best remembered to be the person who made chocolate popular in America and other parts of the world. Many people today know and purchase the infamous chocolate products that have been produced by the Hershey Factory, but some know about how the business became to be so successful
The book and movies I am going to compare are Charlie (Willy Wonka) and the Chocolate factory. The book was written by British author, Roald Dahl. The 1971 film was directed by Mel Stuart and the 2005 film was directed by Tim Burton. Both movies and books have very good plots and details. Some are very similar; others are quite different. It tells the story of a young boy named Charlie Bucket. Charlie, his parents, and his four grandparents all live together in a small house. They're poor, hungry
The plot of both films are very similar. Basically, Willy Wonka is a famous and mysterious candy maker who makes a wide assortment of chocolates and candies. In the past, spies of Wonka’s candy rivals invaded his factory and stole many of Wonka's secret recipes. In response to all of this, Wonka fired all the workers and closed the door to his factory. After this reclusion, the factory began to start producing chocolate, but to the public's mystery as no one ever went in or out of the factory. Years
Many books get adapted into movies, but very few get two movies made after them. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), directed by Mel Stuart and Tim Burton, respectively, are two different alterations of Roald Dahl’s novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1964). Both versions follow the similar plot of five children finding a Golden Ticket that enables them to tour Mr. Wonka’s chocolate factory and compete for the grand prize. As the movies
Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory, a movie full of sweet treats and funny experiences. The movie is about a boy named Charlie and four other children that win a golden ticket by buying chocolate bars hoping there would be one inside. With the golden ticket they have the ability to tour the Chocolate Factory with Willy Wonka himself, the owner of the factory. There is only four tickets in the whole entire world and each child that wins one is able to take on gardian with them. Unfortunately, in
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory as Judeo-Christian Allegory In the classic children's film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, which is based on the novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the author and writer of the screenplay, Roald Dahl presents the viewer with a strikingly vivid metaphor that compares fundamental Judeo-Christian beliefs with, that's right, candy. The basic figures in the religion are given representational roles in the film that do not hide, but instead
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory Vs Charlie and the Chocolate Factory “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” are both amazing movies about a poor boy who somehow gets lucky and meets Willy Wonka himself. They both have the same main idea but there are a few differences about the settings, how the characters look like, and what happens to them. The older one (Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) was made in the year of 1971, and the new one (Charlie

“I want an Oompa Loompa now” said Violet in the 1971 classic Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. This is entitlement, “the feeling or belief that you deserve to be given something (such as special privileges)” Violet did nothing to deserve the Oompa Loompa yet because her daddy has an endless checkbook she feels entitled. There are a few other meanings to this word, the right to guaranteed benefits; the fact of having a right to something. Depending on political views, how someone is raised or
Dahl’s “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” tap’s into young readers anxieties by opening their imagination to new thoughts of possible events that they might experience in the future. Dahl uses Charlie Bucket, the main character as the hero of the story, and arguably a role model for young readers, to portray the life of a poor child who is not blessed with all the things that he wants, because of his economical situation. In this critical paper, I will argue how Charlie Bucket’ character can be

my attention was when Clare was trying to bring up the sales of one of their bar soaps and so they started a contest. They advertised that the winning bars of soap would have a gold coin in them. This really boosted sales. It reminded me of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. In that movie, everyone went crazy to find the golden tickets. Even if people didn’t like the chocolate bars, they bought them just for the chance to win. Another part of this story that stood out to me was when Julia, the
Charlie and the Chocolate factory is a remake of the children’s classic Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, although the acting, setting, and story may seem silly at times, the movie actually have a logical message hidden beneath it all. The emotional connection, credibility, logic, purpose, and setting of the movie are extremely valid, and when you get past the childish cover up, it is really a serious movie. The use of pathos is very strong in the beginning and end of the movie, first with the
Sidewalk Ends" no longer holds our imagination as much as it did at eight years old, we begin to read stories that are a reflection of the environment we live within. We engaged ourselves in the lives of such characters as the Hardy Boys and Willy Wonka. What these stories lacked however, are the social issues that are ever present in today’s society. Not all of American children’s literature is without social content, but the literature many of us grew up with was about adventure and mystery.
