Based on Roald Dahl's children's book, this is a delightful musical about candy-maker Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder) who invites five children to share the secrets of his factory. They find their invitations, which are golden tickets, hidden in Willie Wonka's candy bars. Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum), who takes the tour with his grandfather, Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson), is among the five children who arrive at the factory. Once inside, problems befall the children, but Charlie just might be able to escape misfortune and grab the brass ring.
