I’d seen this trailer before but it wasn’t until watching it again that I realised we hadn’t said anything about it, and it’s quite a significant film, remaking that classic in which Gene Wilder turned a sterling performance in the original Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
The trailer for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory carries all the visual marks of Tim Burton and it does look like it’s a perfect match for his style. The wonderful Johnny Depp looks set to turn a bizarre and utterly creepy performance which suits the role perfectly, that off-kilter smile is just so unnerving.
