Re: Movies you like for the aesthetic

I know that part, I just don't think the message of that part was that extreme. The message was about healing relationships with family and that family is important. It goes without saying that this means loving family, not abusive family. His father wasn't abusive. Wonka and he were just very different and didn't understand each other, and yet the father had followed Wonka's career and successes all along. It fits with the book because Charlie had his family and they were important to him, and story made a clear the distinction between Charlie's family and families of the other kids who were not good parents.

Never letting a kid have candy and taking it away and burning it is not being a good parent.

In real life, sure, though I wouldn't call it abuse. But the world of Charlie and the Chocolate factory is super exaggerated. In that context, I don't have a problem with it in the movie. It fits with all the stylized extremes that Dahl himself wrote in the story.
