BLEAK WEEK
"Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not greedy, you will go far"
When eccentric candy man Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder) promises a lifetime supply of sweets and a tour of his chocolate factory to five lucky kids, penniless Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) seeks the priceless golden ticket that will make him a winner and change his family's life of despair. But there will be a lot of brats in his way. A far more wonderful surprise than Charlie ever imagined awaits him in a land of chocolate waterfalls, giant lollipops, edible flowers and, of course, Oompa Loompas.
Based on the classic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl.
