Featuring Gene Wilder, this movie was distributed by Paramount Pictures on June 6, 1971. The story revolves around Willy Wonka, an extraordinary candy maker who sets off a global excitement when he reveals that golden tickets are concealed within five of his scrumptious candies. Those fortunate enough to find these golden tickets (much like the reality Netflix is creating) will gain access to an exclusive tour of his secret chocolate factory. What appears to be a dream opportunity transforms into chaos as everyone scrambles to locate a golden ticket.

Yet, one wonders whether Wonka’s intentions are purely to fulfill their dreams or if there’s a hidden motive behind it all?
