Wonka
Paddington 2 has been one of the all-time great family films.

In this musical film, the top-hatted Wonka opens his first sweet shop, with the help of an Oompa-Loompa.

Hayao Miyazaki is the director of My Neighbour Tororo and Howl’s Moving Castle. Now aged 82, he has said that his latest film. The Boy and the Heron, will be his last.
