................................
7. Hello, I am a year 13 student from Weatherhead High School currently studying media in which I am
making a short documentary about sweets for my coursework. I am writing to ask for the permission
to use some of the material from the 1971 Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory film, as it would
be extremely helpful in my work.
Yours sincerely, Susan O’Reilly
We also emailed the owners of wily

if we can use some of their footage for
our documentary
