Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (soon to be a movie AGAIN!)

Filming currently going on just down the road from me *grins*

More Dahl... The BFG, The Witches, Matilda, James and the Giant Peach and Danny, Champion of the World.

Rebecca was a book right? Dr Jekyll and Mister Hyde (I'm sure that must have been filmed.) The Time Machine.

*Grins* Yeah, I live about a two minute walk down the road from the Rowntree factory where they're doing all the chocolate factory scenes. Unfortunately I leave three weeks yesterday (but my rent is paid all the way up to the 25th of July if anyone wants to come stalk Depp and/or Burton :0P ) Apparently Depp was up here for some reason recently, but I don't know the veracity of this story.

*Checks imdb* Oooh, the boy playing Charlie was in Happy Birthday Mr Shakespeare - I liked that.
