夜鹰看片会 |《查理和巧克力工厂》观后

夜鹰社阅读活动进入四月份，正巧有人选择阅读《查理和巧克力工厂》（Charlie and the Chocolate Factory），因此本次“夜鹰看片会”选择了由约翰尼·德普主演的这部真人电影。

德普版威利·旺卡

你没有看错主演大名，就是大名鼎鼎的“加勒比海盗”德普，事实上他就是与本片导演蒂姆·波顿合作《剪刀手爱德华》而成功闯入好莱坞的，不查资料我根本没把三个形象联系在一起。

德普饰演的威利·旺卡，是一个天才的巧克力发明家，修造了一个超级巧克力工厂，却因为同行偷窃配方而宣布遣散工人关门。然而他的工厂又重开，神秘的是，从没没见过工人进出厂门。突然有一天，旺卡宣布在巧克力里藏下五张黄金奖券，邀请五位小朋友参观他的神奇工厂，并将提供够吃一辈子的巧克力。家境贫寒的查理，幸运的拿到了最后一张奖券。对比原著，可以看到电影通过威利·旺卡时不时回忆童年伤痛的情节，增加了一个父亲角色，德普用一些违反常态的动作和表情来表现，而电影结尾更是超级催泪。这部电影大获成功，据称华纳兄弟甚至已经要拍一部威利·旺卡前传了。
