I was scanning the TV channels the other night and found Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory on, and I began to watch it. I have loved this movie since I was a kid...to the point that I pretty much know every line in it. But, there was one line that caught my attention. After Violet Beaurogard blows up like a blueberry and she is rolled out of the inventing room to be squeezed, Willy asks this really strange question - "Where is fancy bred? In the heart or in the head?" I noticed that Gene Wilder is this sort of maniacal genius in the movie...I knew this, but all of a sudden I have a more sinister appreciation of the darkness of that movie. Remember the riverboat/acid trip sequence where they show the beheading of a chicken? Anyway, I leave you with this other odd line: "Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker." I think Roald Dahl was definitely high when he penned the initial draft of this entire story...he had to be. And yet, how many of us love this damn movie? I do and I readily admit that I still get choked up when Charlie's Mum sings, "Cheer up Charlie..." More later...
