 Summary

Poor Charlie Bucket is practically starving to death, but his luck changes for the better when he
wins a lifetime supply of candy--and a chance to visit Willy Wonka's fabulous, top-secret chocolate
factory. 

Five lucky people who find a Golden Ticket wrapped in one of Willy Wonka's wonderful candy bars
win a visit to his mysterious chocolate factory. Charlie Bucket is too poor to buy more than one
candy bar a year, he only buys one for his birthday, so when he wins a ticket, his whole family
celebrates.He lives with his parents and his four grand-fathers. Grand-father Joe went with Charlie
to the Factory.

The four other lucky children are not as nice as Charlie, and they're punished for their bad
behaviour. Greedy Augustus Gloop falls into the chocolate river he's trying to drink from and gets
sucked up a pipe. Chewing-gum addict Violet Beauregarde grabs a stick of gum that blows her up
into a giant blueberry. Spoiled Veruca Salt is deemed a "bad nut" by Wonka's trained squirrels and
thrown in the rubbish. And Mike Teavee demands to be "sent by television" and gets shrunk in the
process. But there's a wonderful surprise waiting for Charlie at the end of the tour. 

The entire day was actually another contest, to help Willy Wonka find an heir, and Charlie wins
the entire chocolate factory. Charlie, Grandpa Joe, and Mr. Wonka enter the great glass elevator,
which explodes through the roof of the factory and crashes down through the roof of Charlie’s
house, where they collect the rest of the Bucket family

 Opinion

I like this fragment because it has much fantasy and

I like very much the history that contains. I have
chosen this topic because I had already seen the film
and I seemed very good.
 Curiosidades

The film was filmed in Yorshire, United Kingdom and is the

second adaptation of the novel Charlie and the chocolate
factory, first it was filmed in 1971 and it took the name of a
world of fantasy in Spain.

To elaborate the river of cacao liquid, Burton used a

continuous provision of 750,000 liters of chocolate in
movement. Of these, 120.000L was for the cascade and
630.000L for the river.

Nowadays there are Wonka chocolates like Willy Wonka’s

Candy bars made by Nestle.
