I'm not a very big fan of Alice in Wonderland. I actually don't like it at all. I think it's been overproduced and over conceptualized. The eccentrically whimsical story has lost its innocence. Once that aspect of literature is lost, it's not longer a story.
But, to contradict myself, I stumbled upon this silent film version of Alice on youtube and really enjoyed it. It made me feel the way, I suppose, a story like Alice's should. Mesmerized and a little disturbed. And it's always intriguing to see how the filmmakers of that era gave life to such abstract and challenging ideas.
