Before the prequel Wonka arrives in theaters in December, the classic film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory makes its return to the big screen with a limited time re-release in Mexico. This comeback celebrates a legacy that has captivated generations around the globe since 1971
Under the direction of Mel Stuart, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory tells the adventures of Charlie Bucket, a young man of limited resources but full of hope. One day, Charlie becomes one of the lucky ones to get the five golden tickets that, together with his grandfather Joe, will grant him the opportunity to explore Willy Wonka’s mysterious chocolate factory.

The masterful performance of Gene Wilder in the leading role is one of the fundamental reasons for the success of this adaptation of Roald Dahl’s novel. Wilder managed to perfectly captivate the audience, the same as his on-screen character did.
Likewise, the film is remembered for its exquisite visuals and originality in portraying the chocolate factory. The extravagant settings and visual effects ahead of their time collaborated in the construction of a magical universe that has endured in the collective memory for more than four decades. To this audiovisual package we must add, of course, the superb music composed by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley.
