Therapist Reacts to WONKA 

Thank you air up for sponsoring this video! Don’t miss the chance to experience scent-based taste for yourself: airup.link/4bQv6Dq

Some people think this movie is a “betrayal” of Wonka’s character because it shows him as a kind person, and the original movie had him show little care for the fates of the other children. But I think it’s a little more complicated. Firstly, this is Wonka in his twenties. It’s natural to assume that he might’ve changed a lot since then. But also, Wonka in the first movie wasn’t some child killing monster. The bad things that happened to the kids were the result of their bad behavior, and he said at the end that they would be fine. Most importantly, the first movie made it clear that while he has become somewhat jaded because of other people’s betrayal, he still greatly values honestly and kindness when he sees it. He not only knows that goodness does exist in the world, but that the lack of it makes it all the more precious. It’s like what Lofty says at the end of the movie; “So goes a good deed, in a weary world”. The Wonka in this movie himself is a victim of the greediness and cruelty of people, as well as Noodle and his friends. That’s why he has no patience or sympathy for people who act greedy and cruel. And when Charlie proves to be an honest and kind child, he immediately gives him everything he has.

"Don't hold so fast to the dream, hold tight to being a dreamer." -Alan . Holding on to that ❤

Child actors can be relatively hit or miss, but Calah Lane stole every single scene she was in as Noodle, showing a maturity beyond her 15 years, and sharing the screen with actors with more experience. I'm excited to see her future projects.

"It's not the chocolate that matters. It's the people you share it with." My version of that sentiment is buying drinks for my friends at my favorite bar, and accepting drinks from them in return. The point is that we are sharing something more than drinks. Or chocolate, or whatever else we may share. I feel like it really is the people we are sharing our time with and the memories we make along the way.

I loved the emphasis placed on Found Family, and that Wonka's ragtag group of boarding house misfits gradually become a family to each other. And while there's a bit of romance, namely with the two guards with a mutual crush, I liked that they didn't give Wonka a love interest, and instead had him serve as a big brother figure of sorts to Noodle.

When Wonka would say "here we go Mama" it breaks me 😭😭 Exactly what I will say to myself when I'm about to do something that I'm nervous or scared about. I would then feel my late Mom with me and gives me courage

I came out of this movie, after feeling like the last decade had sucked the hope and joy right out of my soul, and I literally danced a little with my 8 year old while we sang "A World of Our Own" on the way to the van. It was like a balm for my weary soul, and as soon as it's available to buy, it will be playing daily in my home for quite a while.

No way.. The channel that motivated me to study to be a child psychologist mixed with the movie that reawoke the childlike magic... How could I ever resist?.. Thank you guys for doing this movie next. :)

I haven't seen this movie yet for a variety of reasons, but from what I can see from this video, it really captures the soul of Wonka from the original books. There's a line in the second book that talks about Wonka retreating from the Bucket Grandparents having an arguement and sadly looking at his chocolate waterfall because it deeply upsets him to see and hear people fight and be angry. Willy Wonka is a silly little guy, but he feels very deeply and passionately and Timothee Chalamet does a fantastic job of capturing that soul to the point where I can actually forget who he is and just see the character.

I’m a total purist of the 1971 movie, since it’s my favorite film of all time, and I was so wary when I heard this movie being announced. When I saw it in the theater, I was absolutely delighted. Had a smile from ear to ear the entire time. Paul King did such an excellent job. Hats off to him for making such a lovely movie. I can’t wait to watch it again.

I respect how honest Alan is. As humans we can feel jealousy of our peers, but if we don’t act on it it’s a feeling that will go away. This is the reason why you guys have so much success. Your honesty and vulnerability is very refreshing. As always, what a great video. Tysm! ❤️

I’ve just noticed that when he grabs his mother’s chocolate to eat it is the first time that he reads it, comprehending what it says and that the message inside is the embodiment of his nature (and his mother’s)

There's no mention in the books how Wonka grew up, who his parents were, or any of his back story really. I guess they thought it might be nice to make a little like Charlie, what with the rags to riches story.

I like how everybody helped Wonka be Wonka. Starting from his mother, who was the original Wonka, Willy's unique creativity, Noodle's maturity, and he Scrubs staff, they all helped Willy become Wonka it was beautiful!

I had no expectations for this movie when I went to watch it. My brother and I were going to the theater but didn’t know what we wanted to watch. We chose Wonka on a whim and I couldn’t be more happy with the choice. I loved the movie and it was a beautiful experience. My face was wet from tears once the credits started rolling

This made me smile because recently my friend told me he had never had one of those Cadburry chocolate bars with caramel in them. I splurged with the last few dollars I had so we could split it together and it was 10 at night and we sat there in the parking lot eating it and it was a nice moment for us both. Movies like this remind me to enjoy the little things with those close to you, because it's those moments that really matter.

Whoever does the editing for you guys deserves a raise, they’re a master of comedy

You should totally do an episode about Noodle! She's a big part of this movie and her scene at the end is what really made me cry.

I can think of no better video to comment this on. I want to thank you both so dearly for sharing your voices with the world. Jono, you have helped me see hope in the world after years of struggling to. I was terrified to see a therapist in person, but listening to your insights and advice pulled me out of a crisis I never thought I’d escape from. You are warm, caring, kind, and full of spectacular light. Alan, you’ve given me the courage to follow my dreams fearlessly. I spent so much of my life hearing people tell me I needed to have a back up plan. I spent so long worrying that my dreams were too big. Your perseverance, passion, creativity, and boundlessly open heart has made me feel limitless. I’m going after the dream that I’ve had since I was a child, and I couldn’t have gotten to this place without you two. Because of you, I see hope in the future again. So, once again, thank you for everything you do. Thank you for sharing your light with the world. Thank you. ❤️ Alan, I just wanted to note on what you said about “giving up on your dream”. I think you underestimate yourself far too often. You are a talented, insightful creative with an amazing eye for filmmaking. Being on RU-vid allows you to touch the lives and hearts of so many people, myself included. Yes, Hollywood directors can use their medium to connect with audiences, but not as intimately and inspiringly as RU-vid allows you to connect with us. Your dream is still alive. You have become a trailblazer in the world of cinema in a format no one has experimented with before. I think the work you’re doing on Cinema Therapy is so amazing, and necessary in our world. I think you’re more worthwhile than you give yourself credit for. It is an honor to be inspired by you. Jonathan, I hope you start singing show tunes as you walk into the room again. You deserve the love and happiness you put out into the world tenfold. Because of you, I have started waking up with show tunes in my heart again. Because of you, I am excited to live again. I am so grateful that Cinema Therapy exists, so grateful that you beautiful souls exist to heal the world. You’re touching more hearts than you know. You’re changing more lives than you know. I’m so sorry for rambling. ❤ I just had to share. This video, like most, made me emotional in the best way. I hope I was able to offer some sunshine, as you do every time you upload a new video. ☀️ Thank you for helping me become a dreamer again. 💫

Timothys performance is so whimsical. He looks at the world in wonder and its amazingly precious

“Don’t hold so fast to the dream; Hold tight to being a dreamer.” - Alan Seawright. The way this plus what Willy’s mom said at the beginning almost made me nearly cry🥺🥺🥺

I am absolutely obsessed with this movie. I have never seen a movie MORE PURE than this one. Saw it in theaters Christmas Day, and boy did I bawl my eyes out during that mom scene at the end. And then when it showed the part with Noodle right after, the waterworks just wouldn’t quit. I just let them flow cuz I ran out of napkins. Went in with a full face of makeup - I had no makeup on when I left the theater lol 😅

I adore the 2 Paddington films, so I had high expectations for Wonka, and boy did it deliver. Doesn't quite hit as high as Paddington films, but this is definitely another win for the director. From now on, if we need some quality cinema for the whole family, we can always count on Paul King

I watched this with my 4 year old last night. When Willy opened his mom's bar is when I started crying and just continued to the end. I'm an Alan, I cry so often at movies. My 4yo looked over "mommy, are you crying?" I said yes because it's a running joke in our family but then she said, "I love it when you cry" in the sweetest way. Which made me cry some more but it felt good to be reminded that there is nothing wrong with crying.

This movie became very personal to me, i also have a big dream, i want the world to know my stories and creations, and i want people to enjoy them, plus this movie is beautifull in all ways possible, in visuals, in soundtrack, everything, i love it ❤

I like the scene with Noodle and the giraffe, with the music from the Gene Wilder movie in the background. I thought the music was a nice touch.

16:00 rewatch little women when he visited Amy’s artist studio and he jumped up on furniture to get his portrait done. That was Willy Wonka like.

Sally Hawkins in Persuasion (Jane Austen) 2007 ❤ Best Anne Elliot ever!!!

Alan, if you haven't latched on to Timothee Chalomet yet I suggest watching "Call Me By Your Name". He is astounding in that for one so young, and the cinematography is so dreamy and beautiful.

I remember thinking this movie had a lot of potential from the trailers and it didn't disappoint. I absolutely loved Wonka! The soundtrack was amazing! There were so many parts when I teared up in the movie. I also like that they incorporated the oompa loompa song.

At the end, you made a really good point. You can do stuff that you like in a non professional setting and it will still make you happy. Id argue most people would be happier doing what they love at home just for their friends and family. My great grandma used to be a barber, had her own shop and everything, eventually she sold it and just gave haircuts to all her grandkids, and even though she lives half way across the country from me, i grow my hair out til i see her again.

I love how this movie is an origin story that could easily lead into the old movie

A very good film with the lesson that life has its hurdles and sometimes people aren’t always trustworthy but it’s important to find the right people then you can have your own found family which will make accomplishing your dreams much easier and more meaningful

This episode i love now, i need to see this movie now, and thank you internet dads for this channel. one of my favorite ever!

The rags to riches story is something Americans crave. It usually isn’t as ideal as Willy Wonka, but that’s why we need such characters and their struggles. We essentially redeem the truth and then can learn from it.

One of my favorite scenes in this movie (also, one of two scenes that actually made me cry in this movie, the other being the ending scene), is the scene where Wonka gives Noodle her first chocolate. I don't know why, its just kind of heartbreaking but also heartwarming, simply because she hasn't had a true childhood, and to our knowledge, she hasn't had a true set of friends besides the ones working for Mrs. Schrubbit. Then Wonka comes along, and shows her that one piece of chocolate. She likes it, but then her face shifts. And she starts loosing hope about escaping again. All it takes is one glimmer of hope.

At the time this movie came out in Melbourne, i was at the lowest point in my life - i had discovered that i had a chemical imbalance that upon recently turning 21 now precludes me from being able to digest bread and sweets (hell on earth you know) and i was stuck on this hideous carnivore diet for a week, just utterly miserable and without energy. I then finally decided to go out with a friend to see this film cause she said "it was cool" so i did and i at first thought it was gonna be torture watching a film about chocolate when i wasn't allowed to eat anything in the cinema but it wasn't at all. I physically cannot express in words how much this movie helped me stay strong thru such a difficult time in my life. It was so impactful to me that i started up a rotten tomatoes account just to give it 5 stars and anytime i'm down, i hum the songs. So glad to see u guys reviewing this

I absolutely needed to hear that today; "If you have a dream, that doesn't mean you're capable of achieving it" and "whatever you're passionate about, don't let go of it. Just recognise it might be a hobby. You might do something else to pay the bills." My head's been a swirling mess all day about the notion that I have a dream my family need me to give up on to pay the bills, but at the same time, I don't want to sacrifice it. So this really helped me, thank you, Internet Dads ❤️

I appreciate how much this film referenced the source material while still maintaining its own originality (the way "Pure Imagination" was incorporated in the OST was lovely!) On this note, it might be a bit of a stretch, but I've been wondering if Wonka dropping his final silver sovereign in the gutter at the finale of "Hatful of Dreams" is a subtle nod to the 1971 Charlie & The Chocolate Factory! In the movie, Charlie uses a coin he finds in a storm drain to buy his Wonka bar that contains the golden ticket.

I haven't liked a musical film as much as I love the 2007 Hairspray movie until I saw this. This movie is incredible

Thank you Therapy dads for this episode. I saw the movie the day it came out with my gf when I was at a pretty low spot. I moved out about two years ago, not in college, and I am still figuring out life. This movie gave me some spark back from my stage acting high school days. But also hearing what you two have to say about it? Makes me so happy. Makes me feel seen and understood. Thank you guys for everything you do, and thank you to this movie as well

I saw this movie with my boyfriend on a dinner movie date at the mall a while ago. It was so magical, nostalgic and just all around a good time. Even my boyfriend, who isn't a fan of films like Wonka enjoyed it! ☺️💕

"That's why I'm here in the movie theatre, to feel the same way I did as a child" no but for so real?? This movie had such a strong feeling of nostalgia about it. Maybe it was just the Roald Dahl of it all, but it really did make me feel like a kid again, or at least like I was watching something I'd loved as a child but forgotten about, even though it was the first time I'd seen it

Really always grateful for your guys' vulnerability, i really relate to Alan talking about "why don't i get this thing, don't i deserve it?" The humanity makes every episode great.

World of Your Own is definitely the best of the movie, at least in my opinion. It feels like it recaptures that unbridled sense of wonder and joy every previous Wonka film had when they entered the Tasting Room. I remember those Tasting Room scenes in the old films always made me stop and just marvel at how incredibly beautiful it all was, and how tasty everything looks. The store brought out those exact same emotions in me.

I've made art my whole life, wrote stories, painted etc. I went to an artsy type of school and went on to earn a bachelor's degree in design. I now do a completely different job, which I am good at and I like doing and it actually has nothing to do with art. And it was an active choice to not burn myself out in the world of art and design and to not pursue something as work that contains so much of my soul because I realized it would burn me out over time and I didn't want it enough. Art is still my whole life, but it really didn't need to be my career. I'm glad to be doing work that is a little more separate from my inner soul.

I was skeptical of this movie and only went because all my kids wanted to see it. I walked out in the best kinds of tears. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this one!

As an artist doing my best to setup a career for myself in a world with so much competition, this movie was really really inspirational 💙 Thanks for making a video on it!

"Hold tight to being a dreamer" - when I try to translate this to my profession, singing (and the life philosophy behind it), it could be "Stay the instrument. Work on it, yes, but as you!" Love your work!!❤

I clicked on this video so fast!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I loved this movie! I am a huge fan of Gene Wilder's Wonka and was concerned when I heard they were making this. I was so pleased with how it turned out. It is magical, endearing, and hopeful. It's also the perfect movie for the two of you to talk about. Thank you for your channel. I find your optimistic approach to life wonderful!

I could really relate to what they were saying about giving up on dreams there at the end. My dream since childhood was to be a singer/songwriter. I took voice lessons, I was in choir, I took piano, I learned music theory, the whole deal. But ultimately pursuing that line of work caused me more stress than it was worth. Now I'm pursuing a career as a psychologist, and although I've only just started my journey, I can already tell this path will be much more fulfilling than forcing myself to follow my "dream"

Just remembered a 2016 film Anne Hathaway was in called "Colossal," a beautifully strange film. Addresses themes of abusive relationships, repressed childhood memories, and just being lost as a person. Highly recommend it

I was already crying because of the movie clips, then you 2 being adorable and humble and profound... now I'm properly sobbing

1. I like this a LOT better than the other Willy Wonka movies because he’s not a jerk. 2. I was really pissed off that not one of the people who was poisoned by his candy bothered to hear him out. 3. The music IS awesome and my favorite is A World of Your Own too. 3. What about Noodle’s dream? Spoiler alert: she got her dream too. 4. His mom’s smile is great. And Jonathan, my mom died when I was pretty young too and she was also a really amazing person.

I went into this movie with few expectations and left with so much joy. I went back and saw it two more times and recommended it to pretty much everyone. It really brought that childhood wonder back. 'A World of Our Own' was by far the best part of that whole movie, the choreography was so reminiscent of old musical movies, and it always brings a smile to my face. I will never be able to put into words just how much this movie means to me.

This movie made me understand the hype around Timothee too. He’s such an amazing actor. Honestly, now that I’ve seen this, I don’t know if there is anyone else that could have actually captured the Wonka that Gene Wilder gave us. He did it justice. He’s my favorite modern Wonka, absolutely hands down. Now I want to watch everything with him in it. Because I know it’ll be fantastic.

At the end there’s movie magic and Willy and Noodle suddenly are clean.

Finally, my two favorite internet guys reviewing my favorite movie!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!! When I was in the theater and saw the shadow over the moon effect when Willy and Mom are talking, I thought to myself at least one of you are going to say something about that..........called it! Alan, thanks for making me more aware of the subtle details in movies!!

I'm a hobbyauthor and my dream is to publish a book. I already have 300 pages and your video motivated me to go on even when it's hard sometimes. Because that is what I love

I've seen Wonka 4 times and i cried everytime

I remember in the original Willy Wonka film there's a line that goes something like "There's 100 million children in the world buying these chocolate bars just like you, and 5 of them will get those golden tickets, and one day later they'll go back to being just like everybody else". While a bit of a harsh lesson for a child (and as it turns out, Charlie doesn't go back to being like everybody else afterwards), but I think it's also important to balance people's dreams with some level of realism. It's OK to not be "the absolute best in the world at this", there is still a lot of value and joy from doing something well enough to satisfy YOU personally, and your loved ones.

For the first time in a VERY long time I was so delighted in a movie.

I lost my mom at 18 and Jonno is the only model that I had since then about being a legacy to someone you love and lost. Is not a thing that I had someone to talk to so when he is talking about his mom and tha lasting impact of her on his life and actions, I fell seen. Thaks a lot fot that, you help me more than I can explain.

I love this movie! So glad you guys are breaking this down!!

" Hold fast to being a dreamer" ...T-SHIRT! 😊

Loved this - thanks for covering willy Wonka! PLEASE do Nimona next! It's a Netflix gem 😍

I relate to this a lot because I had this dream for my whole life of being a marine biologist. I thought of getting my doctorate and everything. I went to a college a thousand miles away with these bright eyes and cheerfulness and…I found out it’s way harder than I ever thought. I’d always been a good student, but college was a whole new ballgame, and I found myself struggling. And I learned there were aspects of the study that I really didn’t like. Like chemistry. I can’t stand chemistry. And the schooling itself was already hard. It kinda beat me down and made me question my dream. I still loved the ocean and learning about it made me so happy, but suddenly the thought of going out and doing research and writing long scientific papers and stuff just felt so unappealing. Plus I had a really terrible professor who was a major roadblock. Couldn’t pass her class to save my life and I tried twice. Just a super unhelpful person. I had to switch marine biology to my minor instead of my major just so I could graduate on time. It was all a major blow to my dream and I wondered if I’d made the wrong choice. But I didn’t want to give up entirely. I just decided maybe I needed to shift it a little. Maybe I won’t get my doctorate and get interviewed for Shark Week, but I could maybe work in an aquarium, do something on a smaller scale. Maybe one day I could run some kind of educational program to teach kids about the ocean. I may not be making scientific discoveries, but maybe I could plant a spark in a child who might grow up and do that. So right now that’s the new dream. To work with the ocean, but on a smaller scale. Sometimes you just have to shift things around a little. Life happens, things change, but Alan is right. Hold on to being a dreamer, even if you have to loosen your grip on the dream itself. I’m still just a retail worker right now, but I’ve sent in my application to a local zoo and I just really hope maybe one day it could lead to something bigger

Truly one of my favorite movies in the past few years!

I have to say, I enjoyed Timothee Chalamet in Dune, but i didn't get a heartthrob until I saw him in this. His energy in this is so joyful, and his smile's so cute, I fell head over heals, and walked out of the theater like a drunk.

Thanks for your work in bringing this film the attention it deserves! Beautiful first scene with his Mom.

Love the closing message on this video. About ten years ago when I was going thru a tough time I read a book called "Paddle your own Canoe" that brought me to a similar conclusion. It was what motivated me to go back to acting at the local community theatre which was the last time that I had felt really alive. Have been continuing to perform there ever since and have enjoyed every minute of it.

Excellent breakdown, both entertaining and motivational! Love when you guys banter and goof around as well. Thank you for sharing your friendship with us viewers!

I’m sure someone else has mentioned this, but, Monsters U. does a really good job of breaking down and telling the story of your dream job versus the job you’re going to actually excel at.

Alan, virtual hug for you. Your past (I dunno what your past is, but I know you have one) isn't the limiting factor you think it is. You can shift your perspective on your past and have the support you've always wanted now. I wish I had a Jono. I do, but they're not a Jono.

13:53 The fact this was uploaded on a Tuesday is just 👌

very fitting actually. I had aspirations to be an aerospace engineer or physicist but was not allowed to attend highschool and was made to work in a kitchen instead without pay. plus some trauma related to math due to biological parents. I may be good at math but it causes panic attacks. This helped reframe the situation. I might not build aircraft professionally or enjoy being a physicist with access to amazing equiptment and research opportunities like i always dreamed. but I can always continue in my spare time. and pursuing a career that pays me enough to fulfill my dreams helps put into perspective what i need to focus on. The hardest part to overcome is knowing how happy it made them to see me "fail". When they were supposed to lift you up. I suppose failing is simply giving up on the dreams at all. and you cant ever truly fail if you dont give up. Now if i can be a bit better about watching others enjoy an education and opportunities I was not allowed to have I might be easier to get along with. Bravo gentlemen. Life changing enough that I had to comment.

I have learned recently about toxic hope. I believe that's what kept me in my long abusive and emotionally destructive marriage, and what still keeps me angry at him for cutting our kids completely out of his life and not pay child support for, ever. Today my 12 yr old got a birthday card from ex's very frail 80 yr old dad, Mark, but it was signed for Mark by my ex who wrote "love, grandpa" and that's it. A WHOLE CARD he could have written something nice on to his own son, or even signed "love, dad and grandpa", but nothing. That toxic hope keeps me angry at ex, disappointed by his lack of fathering ability and wishing he'd wake the heck up someday. Someday I will move past that and the sheer gall of the abandonment won't pain me, but it is not this day.

Who doesn't love this movie with timothee chalamet i saw this movie before Christmas Eve in 2023 i cried with happy tears 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 love this video guys amazing job I'm therapist too

I loved this movie. Especially just the message I got of even through the worse - you can still hope and follow your dream. It is amazing. - I also never heard of Timothy Challamet until this movie (Never saw Dune until a few weeks ago - yes I live under a rock). I was very skeptical of this movie because I absolutely loved the original wonka movie with Gene Wilder. But this movie was amazing all around and I LOVED how well Challamet portrayed Wonka. It gave me young [Gene Wilder] Wonka vibes so much and I felt the two felt connected.

Final conversation reminds me a lot of Soul. Specifically him figuring out he's been a musician this entire time, not only when playing for money.

Thank you. I needed this episode

I want to thank you guys for all the advice that is so loving

Monsters University!!!! It’s the first and maybe only movie where the main character despite working hard towards a dream, didn’t get their dream come true. But he still kept working hard and trying to reach his goals

Best episode yet. 👌 loved the wrap up about dreams at the end.

I walked out of the theater thinking this is certainly going to be a new classic family film, absolutely phenomenal. I absolutely adore the messages in the movie but most of all I love the emphasis on our passions and dreams being most precious when we can share them with people we care about

This is so wholesome that I need to say this: Thank you for the video on Жопка

I LOVED this movie

As RU-vid creators who give out accurate and useful information to the world in a very comedic and loving way yes you have been lovingly welcomed to the internet

I didn't read the book on Wonka, just an old copy of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. HOWEVER, that's not a "river barge". It's an English Channel boat. They're a thing and quite popular in England. Several RU-vid channels document life on the English Channels.

This is one of those videos I'm going to share with people when I want or need to underline my support/advise to them ❤

I love how John gave a Captain America speech in the middle of Cinema therapy 😅

This movie surprised me. It delighted me. I loved Gene Wilder's Wonka. I loved the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I wore out my copy, it had to be replaced. I even recall one year that one of the large department stores was doing a Willy Wonka-based Christmas display and I couldn't go because I had chicken pox. I don't remember any other years I couldn't go. The Willy Wonka I knew was full of child-like wonder and curiosity, a fascination with things that other people might miss, and soupçon of cynicism. Scratch that; reverse it. Carry on. Timothy Chalamet's Wonka was that innocent and curious person who could see the joy in everything. The one we caught a glimpse of at the end of both the book and the first movie (we do not accept Johnny Depp's Wonka). It wasn't the costume. The costume helped, but it wasn't the costume. I had wondered what I loved so much about Wonka and you pointing out that he was about hope, that made sense to me. But that wasn't it. When I was a child, people called me "sunshine." Not facetiously. Everything wasn't puppies and rainbows, but there were a lot of interesting and fascinating and intriguing moments and creatures and people and things and places that brought joy in the most mundane way possible and so many missed it. As I've aged, I relate a lot more to the older Willy Wonka. This movie helped remind me of that person who could look at a cardboard box and see the beauty of the pattern in the corrugation. Realistic optimist. Sometimes shit happened, and sometimes you were going to be sad, but everything didn't have to be horrible. That's where my head was. Then again, maybe that is hope. Also, Sally Hawkins does have an incredible, warm smile. How does she do that?

I didn't even know this version existed, definitely have to watch it now before I come back to watch this video.

And to think, if Wonka's mum hadn't written a note for the son she hadn't taught to read, that ending scene might not have happened

Gosh, that end bit 😂😂 Please do that whenever you’re commenting on a musical number ❤

I love this movie, and I really enjoy seeing it get therapized... but the 'funnest' part of watching THIS video is seeing that "like" counter go up and up and up! ☺💖

There’s is saying I live by while being a college student who does worry about the future but believes in hope and try’s to be optimistic There will be a million dreams I will chase and million more I will follow and million more I will chase but one dream is leading me to where I want to be .

I love you two. That ending was hysterical.
