But what is it about Willy Wonka and his complicated but wonderful world that keeps us intrigued? Is it the story? The visuals? Or just the very relatable hope that we all have a chance at winning a Golden Ticket that will change our lives? In this savory, photo-filled issue, we explore what each take on Dahl’s 1964 novel adds to the lore and why we, the audience, continue to seek out every colorful adventure.
