Willy Wonka communist veiws:

Is Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory, a beloved movie starting gene wilder and book, a doorinto the concepts of communism? Do you think that they meant to do that when writing the book orcasting the movie? My guess is no, however there are some hints of Marx's communistic values in Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory, such as, the Um-pa Lump-as. Now the Um-pa Lump-as as u might remember them for their funny witty and deep voiced songs that work for Willy Wonka, but in a way their society from the factory works well for Marx's views. Everyone works for the good of all and Wonka helps them as the government official and everything else is a self contained society, working very well for itself i might add.The government provides all their needs (Willy Wonka) and the Um-pa Lump-as work so that the factory can run. A perfect example of Marx's communism.
