The first movie I watched in order to make my comparison was Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, 1971. A story about Charlie Bucket, good hard working boy from a poor family. He, his mother and bedridden grandparents live in a town where a great chocolate factory has been closed to the public for years. The recluse Chocolatier, Willy Wonka, closed his factory to avoid his secrets being stolen by his

Although the film "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" was meant to entertain a young audience with light-hearted content yet it had such a consequential effect. On June 30, 1971, the movie "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" was released. The film was written by Roald Dahl and directed by Mel Stuart. The motion picture acquires several examples of parallels with the Bible. There are five children that possessed the Golden Ticket and each child was faced with a disaster because they did not behave or sin. Even some adults like Mr. Wonka and Grandpa Joe sin themselves. Throughout the film, it shows the seven deadly sins gluttony, pride, sloth, greed, envy, anger, and lust.

For instance, when Dr. Seuss rhymed in The Lorax, he didn’t create new words to rhyme with authentic words, yet in The Sneetches, he invented new words to rhyme with specific words. For example, in The Sneetches, Dr. Seuss stated, “And it berked, and it bopped them about, but the thing really worked!” Dr. Seuss created the word “berked” to make sure that the flow of the rhyme scheme would be consistent. When he rhymed in The Lorax, he used relevant words and the rhyme scheme stayed persistent. For instance, in The Lorax, Dr. Seuss affirmed, “Don’t knock at his door. He stays in his Lerkim on top of his store. He stays in his Lerkim, cold under the floor, where he makes his own clothes out of miff-muttered moof.” Even though Dr. Seuss devised new words in the story, the abstract words did not rhyme with any other words or phrases. Dr. Suess also cogitated many other aspects of each story, such as the characters.

Also, he writes a lot of questions to make the reader think effectively and question themselves what certain things mean. Every sentence Oliver writes has a deeper meaning behind it. The sentences are very choppy and short. He uses four to five words in short sentence and in bigger sentences he used three to four comma in one sentence, giving the feeling of one shorter sentence. Furthermore, Oliver starts the passage with a statement saying “when I look

Throughout his essay, he condenses his ideas into brief sentences that directly introduce the point. For instance, Lawrence succinctly summarizes the

The Baudelaire Orphans find themselves in a difficult situation yet again. They are hurdling down a mountain in a toboggan trying to connect all of their information. Just as they have plan to control the toboggan, the orphans are rescued by Captain Widdershins in his submarine. As the Baudelaires enter they find more of the crew, the captain's daughter, Fiona, and the cook, Phil, whom the Baudelaires have already met. The crew reveals that they know of the Baudelaires mainly because of telegrams they have been receiving and are searching for a sugar bowl the villains are also looking for. Captain Widdershins gives each child a suit and a task, Violet must fix their telegram, Klaus must look at tidal charts to locate the

Dahl presents scary or creepy moments in his writing by having odd characters, creepy events, and evil mysterious ending. Dahl always has odd, mysterious moments in his writing to scare the reader and to persuade them to keep reading by having a climax that you would think was answered or solved but the author leaves the reader hanging at the end. Also, the author turns the reader to become more aware and skeptical.

He also used long, complex sentences to weave the readers’ minds in his stories to make it seem more interesting just like in this line from the excerpt, “The men swore piously at the rain, which drizzled upon them, compelling them to stand always very erect in fear of the drops that would sweep in under their coat-collars. The fog was as cold as wet

Throughout the reading, I have captured that his style is simple and clear by bring out the main idea of each sentence for the most part. The structure is somehow poorly organized since there is not chapters or sub-topics making it slightly hard to read. The reading is repetitive, in which he brings up the same issues at times. Probably he wants the readers to focus deeply on those points. An example can be his views on the poor people and their current situations.

Colors can be interpreted differently in a variety of genres. The colors green and gold in Oz the Great and Powerful and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, suggest the mystery, wealth, and greed in each story. Oscar and Charlie journey through magical worlds in order to acquire knowledge about the true meaning of values and ethics in life and where they can be found, a lesson that continues to speak today.

By using very intricate and ornate words to try and bring his readers into the story and

One of the great joys of reading Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, is the catharsis experienced by the readers when four nasty children are forced to undergo some gruesome punishments. These punishments are carried out in very creative ways, from being turned into a big blueberry to being zapped into a TV, so that they tend to come across as refreshing and entertaining to the audience. However, it must not be overlooked that this small book does present some horrid actions in a positive light, including the sadistic treatment of children, removal of a large population from work, and imperial superiority over indigenous populations. Eleanor Cameron went so far as to deem this novel as a ‘tasteless’ story that represents the nasty character of the author (Cameron). Though she is correct in terms of some of the atrocious aspects of the book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is far from being a ‘tasteless’ book. On the contrary, it is a book that must be kept on the bookshelves, to inform us of some of the darkest aspects of humanity.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, a renowned book by Roald Dahl, captured the attention of America with it’s wild characters and fantastic ideas. Though many readers may not realize, the entire premise of the book is based on a machine taking a key character’s job. The idea that machines will steal people’s jobs seems as far out as the plot of this book. Not only will the development of machines deter unemployment, it will continue to improve the U.S. economy. Therefore, increasingly complex machines may advance the U.S. economy.
