Charlie and the Chocolate Factory DVD Release
Director Tim Burton’s movie adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory will be released on DVD on November 8th 2005. As a fan of the Roald Dahl book I was very wary of this new adaptation, but on seeing it felt it was a much more accurate portrayal of the book and thoroughly entertaining.
Fantasy Adventure. Acclaimed director Tim Burton brings his vividly imaginative style to the beloved Roald Dahl classic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, about eccentric chocolatier Willy Wonka (Depp) and Charlie, a good-hearted boy from a poor family who lives in the shadow of Wonka’s extraordinary factory. Long isolated from his own family, Wonka launches a worldwide contest to select an heir to his candy empire. Five lucky children, including Charlie, draw golden tickets from Wonka chocolate bars and win a guided tour of the legendary candy-making facility that no outsider has seen in 15 years. Dazzled by one amazing sight after another, Charlie is drawn into Wonka’s fantastic world in this astonishing and enduring story.
