Willy Wonka

“No other factory in the world mixes its chocolate by waterfall… But it’s the only way if you want it just right.” –Willy Wonka

“So much time and so little to do. Wait a minute. Strike that. Reverse it.” –Willy Wonka

“Don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he wanted….He lived happily ever after.” –Willy Wonka

Few characters have captured the imagination like the outlandish confectioner Willy Wonka, whose factory featured Oompah-Loompahs and a chocolate river. Good-natured but not above playing nasty tricks on errant children, he proved that sweetness can only exist with a little bit of sour.  Gene Wilder’s iconic performance guaranteed that young folks would recognize him on the street for the rest of his life.
