Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory Analysis

“I have got the golden ticket!” (Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, 1971). The joyous tune that will flow from your mouth after seeing the greatest family movie in at least a decade, “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. The film was produced by Emmy winning Mel Stuart, and, though a new genre for him to embark on, his excellence shines through as all the many aspects of the film come together to create a masterpiece. The novel and screenplay written by Roald Dahl truly takes on an image all of its own as it plays out on the screen. I give this film 4 out of 5 stars, and say it is a must see for the entire family with the outstanding casting choices for believable characters, and creative set designs, to the developed plot that all …show more content…
Dahl has created characters with depth, and a flow of events that are placed in the best way to string you as the viewer along with intrigue. You will find yourself attempting to predict the ending at times, but at other times completely wrapped up in the current event that the ending doesn’t pass your mind. The greatest part is that no matter the reason you think you have formulated for why Wonka has opened the factory doors you will be surprised at the end to find you were more than likely incorrect. Even better is how the ending is developed. You will be brought down to disappointment right before a feeling of excitement and relief with final scenes. Every age will find their own favorite parts to the plot, and be able to pick up different details. No person in your family will be bored for even a minute of the well-developed story. If you have not yet seen “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” then you are missing out. This film will go down in history as one of the greatest family films ever, and will be seen in people’s homes 20 years from now. Take the family to escape the hassles of everyday routine, and allow yourself to get lost in the magical land of Wonka’s Chocolate

For example, in The Outsiders, Hinton’s approach to challenges contrast Golding’s plot and the way they affect the story.

On page 3, Ponyboy says, “Since Mom and Dad were killed in an auto wreck, the three of us get to stay together only as long as we behave.” (Hinton 3).…

    Application It is believed by many critics that this is Willy’s shortcomings and his own flaw that causes him to end up in such a tragic ending. In this case, J. I. Guijarro-Gonzalez and R. Espejo assert that: Although Death of a Salesman, after a superficial or cursory reading, would indeed look like a savage indictment of the system that victimizes Willy Loman, the more one thinks about it, the less plausible does that initial reading seem granted by the text. It is true that in a way, the system swallows Willy Loman, as the sharp focus on the apartments surrounding the Lomans’s place, symbolizing the modern world, seems to suggest, but the system is not to blame for it. Willy is on the brink of ruin.…

    Is there eternal sunshine in the spotless mind? This is the question posed by writers Charlie Kaufman, Michel Gondry and Pierre Bismuth in their movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. This movie, directed by Gondry, explores the idea that feelings and emotions are more powerful than memories, and that if we erased all of our memories, we would still possess the feelings and emotions that were created by those memories. The movie was inspired by a male friend of Bismuth who said that he would like to have all memory of his girlfriend erased. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind tells a story about two people, Joel and Clementine, who are in a bad relationship and eventually break up.…
