Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) - Framed Newspaper Clipping (Wonka's Office).

Original framed newspaper clipping from Wonka's office used in the production of the Tim Burton directed musical fantasy comedy film 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' (2005), where a young boy wins a tour through the most magnificent chocolate factory in the world, led by the world's most unusual candy maker.

The film stars Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka and Freddie Highmore as Charlie Bucket.

Eccentric genius chocolate maker Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp) holds a competition where five lucky children will win the chance to venture inside his mysterious chocolate factory. Poor but kind Charlie Bucket (Freddie Highmore) catches an unexpected break as one of the winners of Wonka's Golden Tickets. Various newspaper clippings like this one were hung on the walls of Dr Wilbur Wonka's home and dental practice; notably in the background of the scene when Willy revisited his childhood home to make peace with his father. The clipping features the headline “Factory Opened” above an article about Willy Wonka and his factory. The article is clearly seen on screen and is set under glass in a black wooden frame.
