This children's book has been a memorable classic for decades. The family discusses the (somewhat minor) differences from book to both the 1971 and 2005 films — but don't worry, we mostly stick to the original. The Tim Burton version is just...creepy.
We also share our thoughts on Wonka, which we saw just a few days before recording this episode, as a prequel to the 1971 adaptation.
Featuring hosts Tim Haynes, Donna Haynes, Rebekah Edwards, and T. Josiah Haynes
