Hello-hello hearing people! Welcome to this video, where we will meet 30 Curiosities of Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. The movie is based on a book, written
by Roald Dahl. The same author responsible for stories like 'Matilda' ... 'The Great Giant Friend', and 'James and
the Giant Peach '. In 1971, a
book adaptation. However, the author was disappointed to see
said tape. Well, he was not very satisfied with the changes
What they did to their story. Roald Dahl passed away in 1990.
So for the time of production Of this new adaptation, he was no longer
I presented. So his widow, Felicity Dahl, was in charge
of overseeing the creative process of the tape. Well, she was determined to defend the legacy
of her late husband. During the first conversations in Warner
Bros. It was intended that the tape was
directed by Tom Shadyac, director of these films And Willy Wonka would be played by Jim Carrey. However, Felicity Dahl did not agree with that. Well, the only director she would accept It would be Tim Burton.
As you know, it has always been characterized for its dark and eccentric style.
Some of the movies he has given us They have been 'Beetlejuice' ...
'The Corpse of the Bride' and 'Frankenweenie'. After Tim Burton took his position
of director. Your first choice for Willy Wonka always
It was Johnny Depp. Although his second option, in case
Depp was not available, it was about nothing less than Dwayne Johnson.
Yes I know. It is very difficult to imagine.
But remember that by that time, he I also did movies like 'Training
to Dad 'and' Fairy by accident '. So who knows what would have turned out
that option When Willy Wonka opens his factory for the first time
Once, cut a ribbon with scissors. But instead of keeping it, he keeps it in his
Hold in hand, and open. This was so, because it is in fact a subtle
reference to the tape 'The young hands of scissors'. Which Johnny Depp starred in, and Tim Burton directed. The toothpaste factory where Charlie's father works is named Smilex. And although it is a name appropriate to its function, the truth is that there is something beyond. Well, this is a reference to the poison that the joker invented in the 1989 Batman movie. Which was also directed by Tim Burton. Charlie's mother was played by Helena Bonham Carter. Who, like Johnny Depp, is a frequent contributor to Tim Burton's films. And not only that, but it was his partner for more than 10 years. They are currently separated. One of the stories that grandfather tells Charlie.
It's that Wonka built a prince, A palace made entirely of chocolate.
And then it melted. This story was taken directly from the
book. In version 71, it could not be represented
this scene. Due to the low budget since the CGI
I hadn't even reached the world of cinema. Which of course, limited what they could
do. The actress who played Violeta received
a 1 month karate workout. For your little combat scene.
Something she enjoyed quite a lot. Although something that bothered him a bit was
having to chew gum during all the time.
Since it caused jaw pain. In the book, the first 4 children are accompanied
of both parents. But in this adaptation as in the
Previous, children are only accompanied from a father
And it was certainly better that way. Since there was no reason for both
Parents of each child were present. Before the premiere of the film, Gene Wilder,
the actor who played the previous Willy Wonka. He expressed his displeasure with this new version.
Accusing the study of doing this remake simply for money.
To which Johnny Depp defended the project, saying that this was not a remake
of the old version. But rather of a new adaptation of
book. The movie has a notable difference
in the compartment of Willy Wonka. And in the book, he is pleased to meet
to the children and greet each of them happily. The same goes for version 71. However, in this one, Wonka feels a little
uncomfortable. He doesn't like physical contact and doesn't even
He gives importance to the name of the children. They may know that Michael Jackson had the
Desire to be the protagonist of several films. He tried to be Peter Pan.
He tried to be Spider-Man. And another role I wanted to play was the
from Willy Wonka. In fact, he even wrote a soundtrack
Complete for the tape. And he presented it to Warner in 2000.
Thinking they would give him the paper. And although executives loved the
songs. The truth is that they did not feel very comfortable
of having Michael Jackson as Willy Wonka. Tim Burton wanted the children to feel
Like in a real chocolate factory. So he tried not to use so much CGI.
So, the scenarios we see are They really built.
Well, they were large surfaces strong enough. As if the actors could walk on them. For the chocolate river, the production He set out to make a liquid that resulted
credible. That is, it was thick and had the consistency
adequate. For that the team was mixing during
months, various liquids and special dyes. Until you reach the point where it was the most
close to chocolate. Since they didn't want it to be just water
brown, as it was in the previous version. The grass we saw was really edible.
The production had a confectioner who made sugar herbs. The same goes for the candy that hung from the trees, which the actors could actually eat them during filming. The actor who played Augusto Gloop,
I really wasn't that fat. The truth is that they put some prostheses
in his body, to give it that gluttonous appearance. When the novel was first published,
Roald Dalh was accused of racism. Since in the book, Willy Wonka described
to the Oompa Lompas as pygmies, imported directly from Africa.
And by putting them to work in their factory, this It was interpreted as something similar to slavery.
Because of that in later editions of book, the representation of the Oompa Loompas
It was changed. As well as its place of origin. By
therefore, now they would come from Loompalandia. When August falls to chocolate, they had
to put some earplugs on the actor, so that the liquid does not enter its holes.
Since being so thick, it was difficult to remove. In the previous version, each Ooma Loompa was played by a different actor. While in this new version all They were played by Deep Roy.
And although it seems that they simply doubled his movements, the truth is that Deep Roy
He acted to each Oompa Loompa individually. That is, if for example in one shot there were
15 Oompa Loompas, means that he repeated those movements more than 15 times. Johnny Depp was the one who suggested to Tim Burton the participation of Freddie Highmore. Well, Depp had previously worked with him on 'Discovering Never Ever'. And he was amazed at his performance. All the background we see in the tunnel scene,
It was completely CGI. Although the boat was real.
Production built a miniature boat with a mechanism that allowed him to control
The biggest boat. This way the actors could react
to the movement. And then the visual effects team would handle
of everything else. For the scene in which Violeta begins to swell, she tried to do it in a practical way. That is simply by using an air hose under your suit. However Tim Burton doesn't
He was convinced by the final result. So we chose to use computer effects and thus create this great transformation. The squirrels we see in the nut room were real. And these squirrels were trained for several months before filming To do what we see on screen. Of course, for the specific part in which
they attack Veruka if they were created by computer. In the TV room, the movie a
The one that teleport the chocolate bar is '2001: Space Odyssey'. A great cult movie that was directed by Stanley Kubrick. In fact, the famous theme song of the tape is even used. As mentioned earlier, Deep Roy played each of the Oompa Loompas. However, it is also true that some animatronic dolls were built to facilitate some scenes. For example, those who row the boat, all
They are animatronic. And some of those in the TV room are too. In the musical number where they get rid of Mike Teve, for a moment, reference is made to the movie 'psychosis'. A suspense classic directed by Alfred Hitchcock. In both the book and the 71 version, the father of Willy Wonka is never mentioned. However, for this adaptation, it was decided to further explore his childhood. And with that explain his strange way of acting. So in the end, he and Charlie went to visit his father, to overcome his trauma. Thus showing an evolution of
character and giving as a message the importance of family. In 2018 it was announced that Warner is preparing a prequel. Which would focus on the
Younger years of Willy Wonka. They would show us how the factory started and show more of their discovery of the Oompa-Loompas. Among the actors thought to play Wonka would be Donald Glover, Ryan Gosling and Ezra Miller ... Either way, currently
no progress in production has been shown So it is believed that we will come to know
Some more of this in 2020. In addition to that, Netflix is also preparing animated series based on the stories of Roald Dahl. So if you like these stories, this
It could be something good or something terrible. Depending on how you see it. But for now, you tell me ... You are interested in all this they are doing Or you prefer to leave things as they are. If you liked the video, let me know
