Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory + Easter Egg Hunt!

Join us for chocolate egg hunt in the NFSA heritage courtyard in Acton at 1.45 pm! The screening of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory will start at 2 pm in our beautiful Arc Cinema.

Imagination is limitless and consequences are exacting when Young Charlie Bucket wins a golden ticket to tour Willy Wonka’s mysterious chocolate factory. As each child succumbs to temptation, the story sharpens into a moral fable about greed, kindness and reward. The classic musical fantasy is based on Roald Dahl’s children’s novel and features Gene Wilder shining as Willy Wonka. Balancing whimsy with menace, the film’s enduring appeal lies in its ability to enchant while simultaneously unsettle its audience.

‘A children’s fantasy with a dark edge that never talks down to its audience.’ - Janet Maslin, The New York Times
