Posted on Tuesday, December 19, 2023 by Carol the Cat

Oompa Loompa doopity doo – The Cinemistress has a present for you! For day six of The 12 Days of Cinemistress – she decided on a sweet treat! Maybe something to delight your sweet tooth – Wonka!
 Be warned, there is a lot of singing and quite a bit of dancing in this film!

The 1971 Willy Wonka movie is one of The Cinemistress’ favorite films, so she went into this with quite a bit of trepidation. Did this new Wonka show her a world of pure imagination, or was it a slog of exasperation? Listen and see!
