    Fun fact: During the tunnel scene, none of the other actors were told that Gene Wilder was going to sing before shooting, so their reactions to it (including Mr. Salt’s nervous “he’s singing”) were 100% genuine. 😂

      @@j.cuttproductions since you like that, here’s a couple more points in case they haven’t been mentioned:
      *Edit:* The movie was shot in the town of Munich (probably spelled that wrong) Germany. Don’t know why I forgot to add that lol.
      - This movie was actually sponsored by the *Quaker Oats* Company, because they wanted to use it to promote a new chocolate bar they were making at the time.
      - Gene Wilder only agreed to take on the role of Willy Wonka if he was allowed to do that little somersault when he first came out of the factory. When asked why, he said that from that point on, you wouldn’t be able to tell whether or not Willy Wonka was telling the truth, which would add a layer of (arguably sinister 👀) mystery to the character.
      - The scene where they enter the chocolate room was actually the first time the actors were allowed to see the set, so their reactions are 100% genuine.
      - And not quite so fun fact: the substances used to create the foam during the Wonka-wash scene ended up being so toxic that all of the actors suffered major allergic reactions to it and had to be hospitalized for several weeks after filming the scene, which almost killed the production entirely. 😬

      ​@@SpiritedHeart94Two corrections: 1.) The reason why it was filmed in Germany was because the director, Mel Stuart, wanted the movie to be "timeless" and be set in a place that American audiences couldn't recognize. 2.) It was actually Quaker Oats, NOT Hershey's, that helped sponsor the movie.

    Here is another fun fact for you most people don't realize.
    Willy Wonka saw Charlie standing outside of the gates. It was something he did often. He likely had his assistant, who was referred to as Sluggworth talk to the knife salesman to tell him the story.
    Wonka set up the contest to make sure Charlie got in. That is why the Candyman hid a couple of cases back, and the Candyman knew when Charlie was coming by because of his paper route. So he put the money in the storm drain.
    Wonka knew the entire time the other 4 would likely be terrible kids, that is why he set the tests up to see how they would act.
    He knew the entire time who Charlie Bucket was because he knew Grandpa Joe.
    As for How Grandpa Joe got the candy bar, most likely the Candyman came to the house after Grandpa Joe called him.
    The Candyman knew exactly which bar had that golden ticket. He purposely gave it to Charlie at the direction of Wonka himself. He gave a few false flags to Chalrie to help test him.
    The entire journey was set up to test Charlie. He didn't want it to look unfair, hence the contest. But he knew the entire time is was Charlie he wanted.
    The final test is when he gives up the gobstopper instead of walking outside to claim the 10 grand he would have gotten. That was the moment Willy knew he really got the right kid.

    From what I've picked up from the book Grandpa Joe siffered from clinical depression. He started working for Willy Wonka when he was younger. Then he served in WWII in 1941, and earned the Navy Cross Medal during his service and possibly injured his leg during the battle which may have caused his bed-ridden state. After the war, he became bed-ridden and vowed to never leave his bed because he had lost hope. Probably partly because of the war and partly because the Oompa Loompas took his job after Wonka closed the factory. Grandpa Joe is also the oldest of the 4 grandparents at 96 (Not many would hire a man that age back then). Notice that even in tge movie he only perks up and is revitalized when he's talking about the good times in his past or when he has the chance to enjoy the visit to the candy factory with Charlie.

    The music for this film was written before the film was shot for the most part. Basically they were writing most of the music from a neutral point, so for example “I’ve got a golden ticket” was written before they knew Grandpa Joe would be singing it. They just told the composer “write a song about finding a golden ticket”. That’s why they ADR’d him saying “it’s ours, Charlie!”

    HERE ARE SOME FUN FACTS:
    - The movie was actually filmed in Germany. According to the director Mel Stuart, he said he filmed it there for two reasons: 1.) Filming in a major city like NY, Chicago, London, or Paris was far too expensive. 2.) Stuart wanted the movie to be "timeless" and be set in a place that was unrecognizable (especially to American audiences) and he felt that at the end of the day, it didn't matter where or when it took place as long as you loved the movie.
    - According to the original Roald Dahl screenplay, the movie was originally supposed to end with Grandpa Joe saying "Yippee!" But Stuart was too embarrassed to end his $3 million movie with "yippee". So he stopped filming and made an international phone call with the movie's uncredited screenwriter, David Seltzer (Who was on vacation in Maine after writing the script in just two weeks without any sleep), and demanded a new line from him on the spot. The only thing that the young, exhausted writer could pitch was with Wonka telling Charlie, "Do you know what happened to the boy who got what he wanted? He lived happily ever after!" Thankfully, Stuart loved the line, thanked Seltzer and hung up the phone, and gave the line directly to Gene Wilder right before filming the Wonkavator scene. And personally, i think it's one of the greatest ending quotes of all time! 🤗😊☺💕

  • @WolfsDE

    The other thing, is the entire film is a metaphor for the seven deadly sins in the bible. Lust, Glutony, Pride, Sloth, Greed, Envy and Wrath.
    Charlie's giving back of the gobstopper is his redemption from falling for Envy.
    Willy Wonka represents Wrath.
    Each of the kids it is rather obvious.
    Augustus - Glutony
    Mike TeeVee - Sloth
    Veruca Salt - Greed
    Violet - Pride
    The Parents - Lust

    1. I first saw it when I was 10.
    2. Ronald Dahl the book author was a well-known LSD user. (you can see why). He also didn't like this adaptation of his book. That's why we got the Tim Burtin/Johnny Depp remake.
    3. The Umpa Lumpas told the reverent portion of the story. Anything beyond that would have been unnecessary and overkill.
    4. I suspect Wonka knew which children would win the tickets (lessons for our behalf) because Slugworth/Mr. Wilkenson was at the scene almost immediately.
    5. Many people (especially women) seem to get a creepy feeling from Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka.
    6. This is the only roll Peter Ostrum/Charlie. He's now a veterinarian.
    7. After reading the script, Gene Wilder said he would take the role of Willy Wonka under one condition: that he would be allowed to limp, then suddenly somersault in the scene when he first meets the children. When director Mel Stuart asked why, Wilder replied
    that having Wonka do this meant that "from that time on, no one will know if things are real or not." Stuart asked, "If I say no, you won't do the picture?" and Wilder said, "I'm afraid that's the truth."
    8. Fun fact: Veruca/Julie Dawn Cole didn't have any adult with her when they went to Germany to film the movie so Gene Wilder himself stepped in to make sure she was taken care of.😎
    9. You can get away with anything in a musical.

    Bro this is one of my favorite movies. I always wanted to know how Grandpa Joe got that chocolate 🍫 bar for him. I never trusted that dude as a kid. 😂 Lol then this dude miraculously gets out of the bed and starts dancing when Charlie has the golden ticket. 🎫 Nah this bama is foul 😂
    Gene Wilder was the actor. Him and Richard Pryor played in a few great movies together back in the day bro.
