‘Willy Wonka’ Cast Reveal Secret Behind Chocolate River | TODAY

Denise Nickerson, aka, Violet just taken off of life support, saying her goodbyes after suffering a massive stroke.
And now, she died
Rest in peace.
Rip Denise!
It’s no surprise, cause she aged horribly
Nooooooooo:(((((
So grandpa can only get out of bed for sweets but not for his starving family ?
I have Never had so many likes and comments 🤣🤣🤣
shaaade!
And he can all of a sudden move,sing and dance😜
Lol
Imagination people...get on board
I think it was more than that. I think it is symbolic of how a person reacts when they think they don't can't see hope and then all of a sudden they have it.
Anyone else got this in their recommended 4 years later???
Leah and Arnaud i wasn’t in youtube in 2016
Yup
Omg same
Me
Just shut up
Nearly half of the cast has died. Rest in peace to all of them.
Yet we have an iconic movie to remember them by
That's just life as long as they weren't murdered
That's sad :((
Yep, all that's left now are child actors (all 4 mains barring Violet, plus a few extras), Tim Brooke-Taylor who played the computer scientist, and three Oompa Loompas (Rusty Goffe, Malcolm Dixon, Albert Wilkinson).
asmr nostalgia May they all Rest In Peace 😭❤️
I'm sad the hear about the death of Denise Nickerson. My thoughts are with her family.
Isaac Martinez Chavez indeed. She had the best outlook on the movie “every time people find out I’m from the movie they smile”.
She didn’t look well in this interview.
Stacie Barnes I was actually there at that con and I can tell you she was in a wheel chair.
Cruizer Brony That’s so sad! What did she die of?
@@litgal7883 All I know is she had a seizure and was put in life support. Days later they decided to take her off of it.
The guy who plays Charlie looks very good for his age,i thought he would look soo old.
Negan He's actually looking to turn into his Grandpa in the film. That's when you know you did great casting.
Negan negan!!
@DashingNative That would be a great film....
I thought he was going to look like John Malkovich. He really resembled him as a kid.
It's just amazing though how different he looks. I thought maybe he'd look like Jon Bon Jovi.
The lady that played Violet just passed away July, 2019.. how sad.. :(
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denise_Nickerson
On July 8, 2019, Nickerson "got into her medicines and took as much as she could" while her son and daughter-in-law were out of the house. Her son took her to a hospital in respiratory distress. While in intensive care, she developed pneumonia.
Nickerson suffered a massive seizure the following day and slipped into a coma. She had a DNR order in place and on July 10, her family removed her from life support. She died later that day from pneumonia at the age of 62.

Amy Mahoney r.i.p 😭😭😢😢
wait what i just found this out today :(
Yeah because she’s a gum chewer usually, but when she heard about this tobacco thing she laid off the gum and switched to cigarettes, now of course she’s in her grave
They act like the chocolate river looked so much like real chocolate when it’s always looked like chocolate WATER 😭
Tbh it looked like red water
It was diarrhea
It looked like flipping root beer
seasons seasons it looks like chocolate in the remake
flower power fecal matter
Charlie is 62! He looks like he’s still in his late 40s-early 50s
You know why another one was made?
Because roald Dahl really disliked the first one.
But he died just before the premiere was released.
Olivia Davies tbh the other one is nice but like Charlie found a 10 dollar AMERICAN bill and he’s british
@@ploppityploppity5611 i thought that too, but i looked it up, and the bill says "National Currency". So apparently theres only one currency in that universe lol
Yes, they changed a lot of things that's why Dahl disliked it
@@ploppityploppity5611 That movie never specifies where Charlie lives, in the book he is british but the movie only specifies the other kids.
Olivia Davies He didn't die JUST before the second one premiered, he died in 1990 and the 2nd one came out in 2005
What’s so wonderful and lovely about this is that the cast from this movie have kept in touch with each other for 44 years since that movie
I always felt that the girl playing Veruca Salt did such a marvelous job. Such a great performance.
Salk
@@Lapusso650better let them know they spelt it wrong.
@@Lapusso650 SALT.
@@igorschmidlapp6987 yeah I checked
Veruca Salt was not played by Fairuza Balk. But she looks like her.
I never thought the chocolate river looked like chocolate. It was too watery. Magical movie, however. One of my all-time favorites.
I did not see the whole movie but I saw many clips and it looks intresting
When I was a kid and I was introduced to this movie my cousin only let me watch 30 minute intervals of it at a time and he would go from Willy Wonka to The wizard of Oz but never tell me about The wizard of Oz it was just Willy Wonka how much of a clusterfuck mind game is that?
@@brianthomason5022So your cousin wanted you to think Willy Wonka had all the Wizard of Oz scenes included in the movie?
Choco river looked like diarrhoea
How amazing that “Charlie” had that experience but now can walk the streets without recognition! What a cool life!
True, but imagine being a fan of the movie and taking your dog in for a check-up and being like, "Hmmm....Dr. Peter Ostrum.....WAIT A MINUTE."
@@eemmaahh yeahhh okay there, no one remembers his name
@@dmullz100 There are definitely fans of the movie out there that know his name lol.
@@dmullz100I do 😂
And I wasn’t even born when the movie was made
they are a dying breed@@chrisb5243
R.I.P Denise Nickerson We miss U 😟🙏🙏🙏 .
Froller5 cozy oh no she died i thought she was on life support
Angel Johnson she was taken off it
BEEG YOSHI so sad
Do you think it was suicide? Read she purposely took a whole bunch of pills while her kids were out of the house and she signed a DNR order 😔 its like she wanted to go?
Amanda Rose Entertainment Inc. Yes 😞
I’m disappointed the guy who played Charlie didn’t become a dentist.
Cavities
He didn’t even age well tbh :/
He became a vet, as a vet student, that's heartwarming to me.
Some vets do animal dentistry (i.e. tooth removal, etc.).
Hairy Nugget! All except violet aged really well in my opinion
R.I.P Gene Wilder, that man made so many people's childhoods amazing. Loved him.
Kayla Manie yes now let him rest in peace monmet of silicone
Kayla Manie yeah RIP to Gene Wilder
Gene Wilder was great in So many movies. Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, Stir Crazy, Silver Streak, The Woman in Red. I miss his charm and natural comedic talent.
Kayla M made my dad weird....
He then went on The Electric Company as Letterman, and his Pure Imagination song was performed on the Muppet Show. Btw, Joan Rivers narrated Letterman and Zero Mostel(Tevye) was the Spellbinder.
I met Peter Ostrum (Charlie) at a convention in Boston and he was super sweet. Just as nice as I hoped!!!
Treebranch hoped u asked a good couple of questions
He lives in Lowville, New York.
Treebranch I live near Boston
Peter Ostrum who played Charlie seems like a nice man.
He’s a vet for animals - how great is that!
I grew up with this film. As a child I was abused and in foster care and I always turned to this film to feel happiness. When I was 22 I took a huge overdose and whilst recovering I watched this to bring me back that smile. This film will always be incredibly close to my heart.
Edit; I forgot to say he was born in Llandaff in Cardiff where my family are from and I also lived in Grest Missenden where he wrote most of his best work in that gypsy caravan👍🏿👍🏿
I hope you’re doing ok now 🙏🏽
Hope you’re well now! Glad you got to find some solace through all that.
Boohoo!
@@leolimitedition 100% unnecessary.
Oh honey I hope so much that life is better now. Some of us get such a raw deal. I hope you’re fighting for a better life. You deserve it ❤
Rip Denise Nickerson who played VIolet Beauraguard who passed away just July 10 2019
Terell Smith oh no!!! I thought she was on life support
@@angeljohnson6665 they pulled the plug after 2 days
Jason Parsons thats sad
@@angeljohnson6665 yes it is
Terell Smith p
Can you believe now at almost 2019 it’s been 48 year
I wonder if they're going to release a 50th anniversary edition, or another reboot starting different actors.
- Buehmann they already did watch Snowpiercer
@@van7915 Literally not a reboot but ok
funkaholic M almost 50 now 😳
funkaholic M I think there’s more years
I'd love to hear what the cast has to say about Gene's passing.
Their personal Twitter accounts :)
Aaron Denne I've actually never checked those haha I wish they'd get together like in this video again and talk together about it, but it's way too soon for another reunion. If there ever is another one lol
ɷɷɷɷ I Havee Watcheddd Thisss Moviee Leakeddd Versionnn Hereeee : - t.co/LRlCMtmQhk
SpyDZN bruh it's not leaked it's been out for so many years
When I was little and having a hard time, this movie was an escape for me. I used to watch this movie over and over again, back to back, all day long.
I have a tattoo on my wrist that says "so shines a good deed in a weary world". This will always be classic.
A lot of his quotes are from Shakespeare and other poets
Ahhh... a great quote from the Bard himself! Now a new tattoo is in order for me!
Why do you need it tattooed on your body, can't you just easily remember it? or have it displayed on a piece of paper in your room or car.?
That obviously fake chocolate river always bothered me as a kid.
the NEW version's chocolate, mind you.
Even as a kid I was like, "No that's not chocolate, that's water in orange dye"
+Orchid1933 Go to IMDb and look at the movie's trivia, the chocolate river was literally made from actual chocolate, cream, and water. If you listen in this video, the cast members never said it was "dirty water," they just said it was disgusting.
Some of it was actually chocolate and cream
Cod_Slayer 33 Correct, they had used real chocolate and cream, but it was extremely watered down, and it quickly turned on set, which would explain why the cast said it was disgusting. The chocolate river actually started to stink up the set not long after they first started filming the scene.
"We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dreams..." -Gene Wilder
That line in the movie is actually Wonka quoting a poem:
"We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;-
World losers and world forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams,
Yet we are the movers and shakers,
Of the world for ever, it seems"
-Arthur O'Shaughnessy
Chesterson Jack
Wow someone else who knows that! Impressed. And peace love happiness to you! May all your dreams be chocolate!
Dreaded Doduo brother in law has this tattooed on his arms
Gene Wilder did not make that quote.
Chesterson Jack lol the perfect “Hate to be THAT guy” moment.
"Come with me, and you'll be in a world of pure imagination".-rip Gene Wilder.
Primus did the album cover. It's amazing
right now he is in a world of pure imagination...rip gene wilder :'(
R I P Denise Nickerson who passed away on 7/10/2019 at only, only 62 years old! sighhhh so sad and next month the family is expecting her Grandchild that she will never get to meet. We loved her in Willy Wonka and our hearts went out to her tragic character Amy Jennings in 1968 on the Gothic soap opera Dark Shadows where she played the characters Amy Jennings and then Nora Collins. Denise did a really good movie called The Neon Ceiling with Lee Grant and she was on the Kid's show The Electric Company whereon she also sang.
7/10/2019 hasn't passed yet. Oh wait... _I forgot America deserved_ its own way of writing the date, and *realised*
She is a blueberry forever
The Challengers this colourful comment has to be my favourite in a fortnight, or at least the best whilst I contemplate how much all-u-min-ee-um is in an Aeroplane 🙃
The Challengers It seems backward to some of us in reverse too, though I learned in Spanish class it’s read as”(day) of (month)”
@@thechallengers1899 i always get confused by that too. It should go date/month/year. Not month/date/year
Rest in peace to Gene Wilder
Kim BlaQue And Jack Albertson
I'm a huge fan of him
Rest In Peace Willy wonka you were the best chocolate man
Rest in peace Denise Nickerson
CHARLIE LOOKS LIKE NIGEL THORNBERRY!
Patrick Hare omg i couldnt place him but that was it! hahaha
Patrick Hare tim Currys voice character you mean
KillSwitchNY Smashing!
hragagnraah
Patrick Hare Lmao he does
She just passed away. You never know what someone may be dealing with. It’s not nice to judge.
Catapillargirl 20 wait who
Kate Zhao Denise Nickerson (Violet)
it was the meth
@@trinitycraigen358 just because she looks boney and skinny doesn't mean they do meth.
@@bakedbeansontoast487 if they don't add context then they are trolling us.
Can I just tell you how jealous I am that he got to hug Gene Wilder?
69 people, including myself, say yea. But, it’s been over 3 moths and still haven’t revealed how jealous you are 😞
Ew. He's a predator.
Now it’s been 4 months 😑
Eyeless Jeff yes. I’m starting to cry. the acting wilder did was absolutly beautiful.
@@elysia.. wait what? Please explain.
Both Charlie and Veruca look good !
And Mike.
And Agustus.
They all look good, except violet, all because she gave up gum and switched to crystal meth
@@rtlthemusician5598 that's really mean
Tamra Irby but it’s true
Dearest Gene: You were an inspiration to me, and to many. I wish you great peace, sir!
+VLOGNOSIS. I could not agree more. Well said
VLOGNOSIS I miss him so much
What a wonderful group of people. They are all grateful for their acting experience, something not often heard today. Willy Wonka is a true classic.
RIP Denise! You will always be in our childhood memories! Gone too soon!
I remember sitting on the floor in kindergarten and the teacher played this movie. I fell in Love with opening credits. We had popcorn served in coffee filters.
Freeloading Celebrity Wows! Same for me!!
I mean the river never looked like chocolate to me.
Eli-akad same it looks more like chocolate in the remake.
Eli-akad it red it not chocolate I agree
I read that it was made of real chocolate, cream and water but spoiled fast during the filming..
Eli-akad looked like any other brook.
In India
Michael Payne that sounds horrifying
Peter Ostrum (i think that's how you spell it) was at my cousin's wedding lol. I got to talk to him for a bit.
Majestic Monkey that’s cool 😎
What did u ask him i really what to know....
LIESL DAVIS cap
@LIESL DAVIS liar
It's so weird to see how things change in front of your eyes, to see those kids grow up to be senior citizens, some of them dead. But one thing for sure, is they got to be in a sweet movie.
Thats a weird thing to say.
@@PeterParker-ff7ub no it's not. It's weird for u comment that
DON'T SMOKE CIGARETTES, KIDS. YIKES.
+Johnny Sunshine looks more like meth to me O.o
Looks like she gave up gum addiction for meth and cigarettes.
+Johnny Sunshine yikes?
+Josh Gummel I was thinking the same thing!
+Johnny Sunshine she looks 80 how is that possible
this movie was everything for me as a child. it makes me so happy to see the cast together again. this movie will always be so special to so many people.
54 years old and still Love Watching This movie..
Rip Gene Wilder, Denise Nickerson, Jack Albertson, and all the other cast from the original Willy Wonka that has passed away in the nearly 50 years since the film was released
Yea only 4 actors are still alive this year
Peter Ostrum: Charlie Bucket
Paris Teman: Mike Teevee
Michael Boulder: Augustus Gloop
Julie Dawn Cole: Veruca Salt
@@diegopalacios1171 and 2 of the oompa loopma actors
ProTip: Don't switch from gum to cigarettes.
Replayability and that’s why she died today 😢
@@tiffanykujat522 That was a factor. She had a stroke and took all of her medications at once in an effort to take her life. That was when her son found her, rushed her to the hospital, and ultimately had her removed from life support. She was being kept alive artificially and was suffering.
So sad. She seemed sweet. Not sure why anyone would be cruel about her.
This would have been perfect if Gene had joined the reunion.
+balser77 Yep! He's getting on a bit now tho.. www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3246835/Willy-Wonka-Chocolate-Factory-star-Gene-Wilder-82-looks-frail-hand-hand-wife-outing-New-York.html

Gene Wilder's not dead, is he?
Better than Johnny Depp! 😉
+♫ SlamminUK ♫ Oh wow, look at him :) What a smile! Getting old sucks. I wish he'd stay looking like WW forever.
I love how they all look vastly different from them back then but the Oompa Loompa stayed the same
I can’t imagine the nostalgia experienced by those who watched it at that time. 😊
oompa loompa doompa dee doo......i am so sad and so are you
R.I.P mr Wonka :((((
(edit 1/6/23) 1.2k likes!!!
TheShutYoMouth ehh it dosent matter. I think johnny depp did an awful awful job.....
Johnny depp did a decent job in my opinion. But Gene Wilder will never be topped.
true :)
Koopa zev Thanks to everyone Panasonic SC-HC49DB - rqt9883-1b.pdf
i beg your pardon???
oml the one that plays charlie looks really good
kandyce carwell he looks just like his grandpa in the movie
I'm here after founding out the one who acts as violet died 😟RIP
They should have a REAL sequel, it would be awesome to see an adult charlie giving his own tour.
That’s a good idea, but not without Violet. So sad for losing her so young. She looks just so sickly in this.
You say chocolate river I say the night of taco Tuesday.
Zaria Winter
LMAO 😂 😂
I have the same name as you lol
Tacooooooooo tueeeeesssssddddaaaaayyyy
-LeBron James
I'm just glad they finally managed to get Augustus free from that chocolate tube D:
Rest In Peace Denise Nickerson ❤️ 🍫
Just realized when Charlie won his it was also a triumph for the local community and he was happy people were sharing his joy and probably when he took over helped his community as well
Okay, I'm crying watching this. What a magical movie. "Violet, you're turning violet, Violet."
Love it still. RIP Gene Wilder and your beloved wife before you, Gilda Radner. Thank you both for all of the entertainment. 💕🌈
Sad that Gene Wilder passed. But, he gave a awesome performance. One of my favorite movies.
I am 54 and I still watch this...the original version...
I'm concerned seeing Denise Nickerson. She doesn't look healthy. I remember her from her days on Dark Shadows. I hope she's okay.
Some people just age really badly
Orangelo I would speculate smoking and drinking may have something to do with it
MissLizaMay I was wondering the same thing.
* AnimalHeadSpirit * yeah i would hope so since he has been a veterinarian since 1984. He is a vet that treats mostly horses and cows.
My guess is whoever looks the worst is the poorest. based on his age, the guy who played charlie looks great & he's a veterinarian, i don't know what the woman who played Veruca does, but she also looks good for her age. Update: just looked it up, she still a working actor in England. her last credits were from 2013, 2 years before this video was uploaded.
1:12 to the good old days
Jessica i see phil
even here wow
Jessica eVeRyWheRe
When our momma sang us to sleep but now we're stressed out
Hey
teary-eyed for the nostalgia and wonderful childhood memories this movie has brought us!
It would have been great to see Olstrum continue in acting. Imagine all the roles he could have been in.
when i saw gene hugging charlie a single tear ran down my cheek
its just so genuine, its rare these days. love this movie to death
This was my favorite movie when I was a kid. PS. For me, this is the ONLY Willy Wonka movie. That Johnny Depp "Charlie And The Chocolate Factory" doesn't even come close.
exactly!!!
+Marie B Ironically enough I love johnny depp and thought he would have made a great wonka
+nexttvmarketing but he didn't:/
+nexttvmarketing I love Johnny too...but, seriously???
I was never a big fan of Johnny Depp but I remember thinking, "How dare they remake Willy Wonka!" It's mostly because it was my favorite movie as a kid. In fact, when my mom got my sister both versions on DVD for Christmas, I told her that she better not give me both. She gave me the original Gene Wilder version.
Boy, that was 50 years ago 😳😂🤣😭 time sure flies.
Julie is so right...just listening to them reminisce and seeing clips from the original movie definitely has put a smile on my face! Thank you! 😊
R.I.P. Willy Wonka
I could tell right away even as a kid that it was water and not chocolate. chocolate would be thicker and move differently
It would be similar to the texture of Hershey's syrup.
same, even little me knew it was weirdly runny. but i didnt think much of it
That is the cutest Oompa Loompa he’s so happy to have been part of that!! So happy for him
It’s so cool to see them all reminiscing about this movie, and being together again
This was shot while Wilder was still alive, but when that guy says, "Let's send our very best to the great Gene Wilder" he points up, as if he's suggesting Wilder is up in heaven.
I noticed that too, made me check the date on the video
sadly, when someone gets diagnosed with serious Alzheimers, its a beginning to an end, I'm guessing they all knew that. I so hope they find a cure to the disease, nothing is more horrid
tomaf what time?
Gene will be missed so much. My heart and condolences go out to his family. Thank you Gene for all you have done!
I remember going to it as a 10 year old in catholic school. It was a field trip for my class. Very good memory.
Rip Violet and Gene ❤️
The guy who plays Charlie really hates the spotlight, he was hesitant on raising his hand to wanting to do it all over again lol
I wouldn't want to do it again if it meant getting yelled at by someone who I became friends with.
I'm like him, nostalgia is lame, I wouldn't want to do the same crap over again in my life, move on. I can tell he only put his hand up so he wouldn't be the only one not doing it so he wouldn't have to talk about his decision to keep his hand down.
He lives a half hour away from where I live and makes many appearances at my school and still does and says he doesn’t like the spot light and he probably wouldn’t do it all over again 🤷🏼♀️ he’s a great veterinarian tho, he’s definitely found his calling there.
by looking at the thumbnail I thought they were the ones who played the oompa loompas
itsammar1 same lol
Idk why I’m just doing this now but same here
Gene Wilder was the most Savage
Help. Police. *Murder.*
#savageapproved
No. Please. Dont. coMe bAck
Lmao
Peter Ostrum looks the same ( besides the mustache) and has that incredibly sweet genuine essence he had when he was playing Charlie.
Rip Gene :(
He is acting with the angels
What a life :))
singingstar56 he DIED 😨😨😨😟😟😟
rip to gene aka Mr willy wonka
Gene is now in a world of pure imagination. We love you Gene and may you rest in peace.
I got to meet Mr. Wilder before he passed when I was in the Florida Keys. He had a house there, and he would often ride his bike to the corner store called Angelo's that my mom worked at, and one day when I was headed there to get some cheese sticks I happened to catch him on his bike, and he stopped and we had a brief but VERY pleasant chat. My mom also worked on his boat once or twice as well and always had pleasant things to say about him. Dude was a legend and an absolute saint.
One of my absolute favorite movies!!!!!!! The cast seems so kind and lovely to be around❤️😊
It was a FANTASTIC film. And one that EVERY SINGLE CHILD alive on this earth must see at least once...!!! Thank you to the cast and especially Gene for giving me such great memories. I know Johnny Depp tried with Charlie and The Chocolate Factory but it just wasn't the same. Nothing could ever replace or duplicate this movie it's that much of a classic.
They weren't trying to replicate the original though. They were doing a closer-to-the-written-source concept.
@@shadenarour4518 but Gene's version was the more closest, since they didnt have a script and the scenes were from the book itself, except from the oompa loompa's cause the director didnt want to have them look black and make them look like slaves back then
The actress who played violet looks creepy. No offense
I think she may be sick.
You know that just saying, "no offense" wouldn't make her feel better if she read that, right? Ha!
That's what will happen if you don't stop smoking
The badly behaved kids were hysterical in the movie. Charlie was so authentic & likable in his role. I loved seeing this.
its so beautiful to know that they all had such a good time and are life long friends! 🥰 Happy 50th anniversary Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory! 🥰🍫
I can see a episode called "High School Musical, 50 years later"
Lisbeth Cervantes yup it'll happen
RIP Gene Wilder. You're a real legend.
Me *looks at thumbnail*
Also me: *instantly knows which one is agustus gloomp
Wow what a wonderful feeling I get when remembering this classic. Gene will be truly missed
The "chocolate river" was simply the sewage line
lol. they should have ended with that.
Chocolate rain.
JohnstasBACK like in epic movie 😂
I don't know if it is just me, but it never looked like chocolate at all to me. It moves like water, not like a thicker liquid.
JohnstasBACK it’s chocolate and water mixed to be more and thinner
Veruca and Charlie aged well, they were the best looking kids from the start.
Rest In Peace Denise Nickerson!
“Charlie” looks so good! Aged very well.
Julie Dawn Cole looks ten times younger than Denise Nickerson but they're both the same age
Cigarettes will do that to you.
melisa d gum will do that to you #staywoke
melisa d drugs
The commentary was wrong, Julie Dawn Cole did carry on acting. I remember her in the TV series "Nurses", I think it was called.
I remember Julie Dawn Cole when she was in the t.v series Angels. Must of been about 1975. Great series on the BBC.
Nobody would ever be this nostalgic about the newer version of Willy Wonka...
Eeeah, if it's all you knew, maybe, but since we all grew up with this one we wouldn't be..
true
They will when they get old enough to be. But if an even newer version comes out, I'm not going to make the same mistake as all you bashers. I will see it with an open mind, and not let nostalgia cloud my jugement.
I agree. I'm not really a fan of Tim Burton movies, nor most Hollywood remakes. I didn't expect to like "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", but I saw a few pre-release ads, read some reviews, and got curious. I went to it with an open mind with no expectations. I purposely tried not to make comparisons to the original film. They were wise in giving it the same title as the book, and going in that direction with the portrayal of the characters, and the scenes. Well, I saw it in the theater when it first came out, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. I really liked it!
A beautiful childhood classic❤️ Rip Denise
I was very lucky to meet all of them in Boston on 11/20/1999 and also Charlie Buckey, (Peter Ostrum) movie mother Diana Sowle.
I have a golden ticket from them, I also have a picture with each one of them they were great to talk to. Thanks for coming to Boston Mass.
