Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Loompa Dance

Posted July 07, 2005

Movies & TV - The bizarre, tiny workers at the factory break out into a dance and take it to the billboards in Los Angeles.

Oddball director Tim Burton teams up again with quirky actor Johnny Depp (Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands) for this second adaptation of Roald Dahl's classic children's book. Unlike the 1971 film--which was actually called Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory--this new version is not a musical.

For a different take on our favorite confectioner, watch the short film Monster from the Closet.
