To honor the late Gene Wilder, a Coachella Valley theater will be screening ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory’ this Saturday.
The classic film will be shown at Regal Entertainment’s Rancho Mirage location – with screenings at 2 and 7 pm.
Wilder, who had an amazing performance as Willy Wonka in the Mel Stuart-directed adaptation of Roald Dahl’s book, died on Monday from complications of Alzheimer’s disease.
Tickets and info for the 2 pm showing are available here. The 7:30 pm screening is here.
