watching that one commercial again...
with the song "Pure Imagination" for a cell phone company. That got me thinking about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Growing up as a kid, I always thought it was a Disney movie. But now I know it's not and I believe that there was a reason for it. I nowadays see the movie with kind of a hidden message about a utopian big government world. I remember hearing that as late as the early 1970s, the Walt Disney company was a very Orange Countyesque bircher organization and that may be the reason disney didn't make it. On face value, it may mean nothing, but I think I found a greater message in the movie.
