102 - The Movie That Wonka Is Homaging, Delicatessen

Wonka Watch: An Unimportant, Unofficial Podcast

Paul King says one sentence in an interview and we have to arrange our whole week around it. This is our fate and our task for this week was to watch the french film Delicatessen which Paul King is apparently attempting to homage with Wonka. It was surprisingly educational!

This podcast was recorded during the SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the actors currently on strike, Wonka wouldn't exist.
