Wonka - Wednesday Aug 28, 2024 starting at dusk
Our final Sunset Cinema film screening will be a candy-coloured wonderland for all ages, complete with face-painting for the kiddos, a cotton-candy machine, and a Golden Ticket giveaway.
Willy Wonka is the mastermind behind some of the most delicious and innovative chocolate creations the world has ever seen. But before shaking up the chocolate industry and making a name for himself as a confectionery genius, the ambitious young creator had to struggle against all odds. As a result, Wonka transformed his wildest dreams into reality with a bold vision, determination, and unexpected help from new friends. After all, hard work and a dash of magic can make anything happen. Because, as Wonka already knows, it only takes a dream to make a difference.
Wonka is a 2023 musical fantasy comedy film directed by Paul King. It tells the origin story of Willy Wonka, a central character in the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, depicting his early days as a chocolatier. The film stars Timothée Chalamet as the title character, with an all-star ensemble cast including Keegan-Michael Key, Rowan Atkinson, Olivia Colman, and Hugh Grant.
PG 1 hours 56 minutes
