Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Director Tim Burton brings his vividly imaginative style to the
beloved Roald Dahl classic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The
film centers around Charlie (Freddie Highmore), a good-hearted boy
from a poor family, who, through luck and a golden ticket, can tour
the wonderful candyland that is Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory.
Long isolated from his own family, the eccentric chocolatier Willy
Wonka (Johnny Depp) launches a worldwide contest to select an heir
to his candy empire. Five lucky children, including Charlie, draw
golden tickets from Wonka chocolate bars and win a guided tour of
the legendary candy-making facility that no outsider has seen in
15 years. Dazzled by one amazing sight after another, Charlie is
drawn into Wonka’s colorful and fantastic world of candy and adventure.
