“One of THE Moments in Movie History” ITF Read & Watch: Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1964 novel & 1971 film)

Roald Dahl might not have liked it, but Gene Wilder’s performance
as chocolatier Willy Wonka is the stuff of movie legend, and Mel
Stuart’s adaptation of the children’s novel holds up to this day.
In episode 295, Luke & James debate which of many iconic
scenes is the most memorable, try not to drink from the nasty
brown river, skewer the reprehensible Grandpa Joe, take a trip
down the tunnel from hell, and choose which of these children
really deserves their fate. They finish by casting their vote on
which was better: the book or the movie! Relive a classic before
you join Timothée Chalamet for “Wonka” (2023)?
