So shines a good deed in a weary world...

[mannyamaya]

How is he sitting in half of a chair???

[SuperSimmerGal]

@mannyamaya I've always wondered that, too. You'd think that would be awfully uncomfortable, especially for a guy! Poor Gene is all I can say (I've seen behind-the-scenes pictures, and the entire chair really was cut in half. It wasn't just the top part)!

[kingBob837]

3:48 Every day of the week...

[ridewave444]

Wilder was perfect for this role.

[vito4355]

cute charlie >,)

[fitboyslob]

@doctorfeeluckybutcantspelly. The word is Toupee. Notwithstanding your vague attempt at humour, he cant have had issues with a toupee as the "comb over" effect he displays, requires actual hair. I doubt that anyone would be dumb enough to have a toupee made to replicate the comb over, although I would'nt die of shock were it found to be true. The good folk at Google will spell words for you where spellcheck fails.....

[SuperSimmerGal]

@fitboyslob You are correct. That wasn't a toupee, but his actual hair...which, according to the "kids" (the actors that played Augustus, Veruca, Violet, Mike, and Charlie, who are all now adults, obviously) the hair and makeup lady referred to as "chicken" (she was German and didn't realize that the German word she was using translates to chicken in English).

[doctorfeelucky]

Gene Wilder having issues with his tupay?

[JoeDan54DX]

You're awesome dude you did not edit it. Thank you.

[CrzyAsianGuy]

I read the book, but don't get it, what did charlie put on his desk? what is it for?

[ipcress1066]

@CrzyAsianGuy It's an everlasting gobstopper - Wonka gives the kids one each, as long as they promise not to sell it to his competitor Slugworth. He's testing the kids as Slugworth is actually one of Wonka's employees. Very clever. If that was today the kids would be selling them on eBay as soon as they left the factory...

[SuperSimmerGal]

@CrzyAsianGuy That part isn't in the book. They added it for the movie.

[2625yoshi]

At 3:12 after Wonka calls Charlie back, I thought it was edited for him to say "YOU LOSE!" just like most of the videos of this on YouTube.

[aseriousman91]

Kids are so cynical these days, you never see that kind integrity in the kids' shows and movies they put out today.

[bilal216]

lol hahahahaa...

[amancalledlum]

That's one helluva head game. I'll have to try that with my kids one day.

[HomeSkillet489]

I the undersigned shall forfeit all rights, priveleges, and licenses here and here contained etc etc, the torch of the mind is the path to glory, etc tec, I am mindful that this crime is punished twice.

[HomeSkillet489]

Grandpa Joe seems like a hell of a guy. I wish he was my grandpa.

[AntiFederalist1]

Strike that! Reverse it!

[showusyertube]

I don't 'like' this scene... I love it!

[Batmanmg]

its a shakespear quote, don't cream your pants

[xXPinkGoddessXx]

The director didn't let the actor who played Charlie know that Gene Wilder would be yelling at him in this scene.

[Seriously543543]

It would just be strange and creepy to have stuff with lost halves. O_O

[sirMAXX77]

oddly enough my favorite scene from the movie

[aspidiske]

I wonder why the author of Charlie and the Chocolate factory ( the book) doesn't like this version..

[QueenLoreal]

LOL!, Wonka needs to be checked for Bipolar

[JasonRadley]

Shakespeare (aka the Earl of Oxford) wrote, 'So shines a good deed in a NAUGHTY world.' so the writers here obviously thought theirs was an improvement, which it is, to modern ears, albeit that in Shakespeare's day, naughty had the meaning of 'evil, wicked, morally wrong'.

[DefyGravity464]

That's my favorite line in the whole movie. =)

[ManNotFoundDog]

Wonka: "Charlie? My dear boy... YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY, SIR!"

[superbros15]

YOU BROKE THE WOOLS!

[rodriguez705]

Does anyone know what Wonka is saying in between 1:43 and 1:50?

[ipcress1066]

@rodriguez705 Well as as far as I can tell: "Fax mentis incendium gloriae culpum" means "The torch of the mind lights the path to glory." and "Memo bis punitor delicatum" doesn't mean anything. The closest Latin equivalent would be "Memor bis punitor delictum", which translates to "I am mindful that the crime is punished twice."

[rodriguez705]

@ipcress1066 thank you!

[everybodyhasone]

@ipcress1066 Wrong, sir, wrong! Under Section Thirty-Seven B of

the contract signed by him it states quite clearly that all

offers shall become null and void if--and you can read it

for yourself in this photostatic copy: "I, the undersigned,

shall forfeit all rights, privileges, and licenses herein

and herein contained, et cetera, et cetera . . .

[everybodyhasone]

@everybodyhasone fax mentis

incendium gloria culpum, et cetera, et cetera . . . memo bis

punitor delicatum!" It's all there, black and white, clear

as crystal! You stole Fizzy Lifting Drinks. You bumped

into the ceiling which now has to be washed and sterilized,

so you get nothing! You lose! Good day, sir!

[squiggyklane]

@ipcress1066 impressive

[TakeMeBackTo1986]

"So Shines a Good Deed in a Weary World"--it reminds me of selfless acts throughout history which show the "Better Angels of our nature" in humans! :) When i'm feeling Jaded and weary of this world, this line resonates in my weary mind and i feel hope for the world! :)

[DPG4REVIEW]

i wish all we have to do is find a chocolate crazed kid to get me into retirement. haha

[thegeezerdan]

I love this part.

[MrMaligner]

Absolutely 100% agree, the best part and a heart string tugger.

[MrCaptainDerp]

What a great actor this Gene Wilder fellow. He did such a great job! I wonder if the room being in half has some moral meaning to it?

[rmg1035]

"So Shines a good deed in a weary world" I live by these worlds!

[littlemaninblack]

...So, you don't embed. hmmmm. Just a little curious, thats all....

[lynfendleyfoster]

From Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice." One of my favorite lines from literature, and the best part of this movie, too. Warmed my heart. ;-)

[nihonlove]

thumbs up if bellator sent you!

[double1967]

"So shines a good deed in a weary world." Wonderful.... thank you.

[enjoiorange]

Let's not forget the awful music in the Tim Burton version

Anyway this and "we are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams" are my favorite lines

[JPnintendofan]

This is one of the many reasons why this version is better than the 2005 film. Gene Wilder says things like, "So shines a good deed in a weary world..." while Johnny Depp says things like, "Good morning starshine, the earth says hello!"

[Hendrix92TheUniverse]

Thanks for posting, great scene.

[KenDoeFresh]

One of the Greatest Lines in Film History

[2008goo]

@KenDoeFresh ... from the greatest author of all time.

[skybreaker09]

@KenDoeFresh One of the greatest lines written by Shakespeare :)

[toremindthose]

@KenDoeFresh It's originally from The Merchant of Venice, but put to good modern use in this movie.

[MsTruthisoutthere]

This is my favorite part in the movie, wish more people had the values of this little boy in real life. We do live in a weary world.

[millipedethumbscrews]

@MsTruthisoutthere yes, it's my favourite part too. I've just found out that it didn't originate in this film though - it's from the Shakespeare play The Merchant of Venice, Act 5, Scene I.

[ipcress1066]

@millipedethumbscrews

Really? Thanks for that. I did Merchant of Venice for my English O Level but obviously didn't read that bit (I failed the exam, can't think why...)"
