Ton of Charlie clips online

July 5, 2005 Charlie, Projects

Reader Francois just pointed out a large selection of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory clips hosted at [IESB](http://www.iesb.net). I’m sort of surprised Warner Bros. made so many available, but they all look authentic and authorized. (CUT TO: Me furiously deleting any reference to their existence after WB says they’re not allowed.)

Presumably, these clips are intended for broadcast stories and reviews, but video is video, even if it’s Windows Media Player. Have a [look](http://www.iesb.net/wb2005/062905.php).

I don’t think any of these really show the movie at its best, so if you have any inclination to simply wait for the actual movie, well, trust your instincts. But I know you’re going to watch them anyway, so here are the standard disclaimers. Some of the clips are dry (that is, without the real music in the background), while others are somewhat weirdly edited for length or other reasons. (Such as the abbreviated “Parlor Trick” clip, which omits much of the Oompa-Loompa song.)

There are also filmmaker clips, including one from yours truly. The interview was conducted almost a year ago. I had completely forgotten about it until last week, when I had to sign off on the special features for the DVD. Bonus points to any reader who can figure out where the interview was conducted.
