It's on ABC Family right now, and I'm wondering how the hell did they film this movie in the year 1971
. Between the trick filming and crazy sets/props...
The year was 1971.. how did they film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory?

You make like 1971 was the Stone Age.
Brush up on some film history. You'll be surprised.

This. It still blows my mind that the movie was filmed in the 60's. Kubrick was the definition of a visionary

The Wizard of Oz was filmed in 1939 and I think it looks better and it used technicolor.

If it weren't for the archaic images on the screens/monitors, if this film were released now I would think it would be too ambitious.

Hollywood got complacent. They realized the money is in these action blockbusters that focus less on art than explosions and rapid camera cuts. Many of the most cutting-edge films were made in the 50's and 60's.
