Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory screening at The Lanes' Courtyard Cinema Club

Posted on: 09 Sep 2016

After the recent passing of cinema icon Gene Wilder, The Lanes Courtyard Cinema Club will be showcasing one of his most iconic films, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory on Tuesday 13 September 2016. It will be a celebration of the film and the remarkable star himself.

 

From 9pm you can witness this cinematic treat. You all know the story by now - Young Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) wins one of the coveted 'Golden Tickets' from a Wonka Bar that allows its holder to take a trip around the eccentric Willy Wonka's (Gene Wilder) Chocolate Factory. Charlie and the rest of the winners find themselves in a magical world of chocolate rivers, Oompa Loompas, everlasting gobstoppers, lickable wall-paper, golden egg-laying geese and chilling tales to warn children not to misbehave. Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay from his own book.
