That, my children, is called cannibalism.

The evening last I saw Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolat Factory. I really enjoy the work of Mr. Tim Burton and this was one of his best in quite a while.

What was missing? The Gene Wilder version featured only one song that took it's lyrics from the book. This song was the insanely creepy riverboat song, and I am linking to it here so you can all enjoy it/remember how out of place it was. Link!

The New Yorker recently did a great article on the book's author Roald Dahl, that wacky anti-semite. Well worth your time. Link!
