There’s no earthly way of knowing
Which direction we are going…
Get ready for a wild ride with Gene Wilder, as Roy and I explore “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” (1971). The beloved family musical, very much a product of its time, offers a perverse world of umbrella mushrooms, tea cup daffodils, and psychedelic steamboat rides, reflective of its merry prankster ethos.
Leave your comments next to the snozzberries, then climb aboard the Wonka Mobile for a quick cleanse. The Candy Man promises a groovy lemon pie – ‘cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good.
Oompah-Loompahs are the new orange, on the next Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner. Don’t sell-out to Slugworth, as we live-streamed on Facebook, this Friday evening at 7:00 EST!
