Enter a world of pure imagination as the Academy Museum screens the original (ahem, best) Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, in conjunction with their latest exhibit about the history of color in films, Color In Motion (where you can see the original Wonka Bar prop). I don’t exactly know why I think of this as a Christmas movie, but it seems like a good way to kick off the holiday film season.
