    Free movies at dusk in St. James Park 6 consecutive Saturdays, July 19 through August 23, 2008. Warm Saturday nights when the kids can stay up late and the cool grass and setting of historic St. James Park. It will be a good time. Great films for a date or the whole family. Check cinequest.org for special drink and food offers.

    July 19: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
    The world is astounded when Willy Wonka, for years a recluse in his factory, announces that five lucky people will be given a tour of the factory, shown all the secrets of his amazing candy, and one will win a lifetime supply of Wonka chocolate. Nobody wants the prize more than young Charlie, but as his family is so poor that buying even one bar of chocolate is a treat, buying enough bars to find one of the five golden tickets is unlikely in the extreme. But in movieland, magic can happen. Charlie, along with four somewhat odious other children, get the chance of a lifetime and a tour of the factory. Along the way, mild disasters befall each of the odious children, but can Charlie beat the odds and grab the brass ring?
