This is an impressive-looking version of Lewis Carroll's story originally produced for NBC-TV. Dreading a singing recital at her parents' lavish home, Alice falls into a strange world in pursuit of a large White Rabbit. The talented child actor Tina Majorino (Corrina, Corrina) plays Alice with all the good graces but mostly wanders through the story unquestioningly. Carroll's tale of whimsical, illogical adventures is a field day for designers Roger Hall and Alan Tomkins, costumer Charles Knode, Jim Henson's Creature Shop, and director Nick Willing (Photographing Fairies. Influenced by Time Bandits and Labyrinth (the latter also designed by the Henson company), the film has a splendid array of effects, many dealing with multiple perspectives as Alice constantly changes sizes. The highlight is Whoopi Goldberg as the Cheshire Cat, a seamless mix of cat and comic. Martin Short as the Hatter and Mirandra Richardson as the Queen of Hearts seem to be having the times of their lives. This is not the definitive version of Carroll's tale, and, like the popular Disney animated version, combines some elements of Carroll's sequel, Through the Looking Glass. It is perhaps better viewing for the fan that has seen another version of the tale or read the book. --Doug Thomas

I found it very annoying that the makers of this version felt the need to have everyone keep teaching little lessons and reciting little morals to Alice. As another reviewer has said, that is contrary to the whole spirit of the books and contrary to their original intent. (A similar outrage was perpetrated by the makers of the TV movie "The Odyssey," where--contrary to Homer--we see Odysseus having to learn little life lessons before he is allowed to go home.) What I did like, though, was some of ... Read More

A in W has never been my favorite story. But we watched this on TV and I was captivated by it in a way I never have been before. It has a few longueurs, but these performers and their take on the White Knight, the Cheshire Cat, the Red Queen, and the Mad Hatter are the ones I'll remember. There is a poignancy to this version's Alice - an emerging personality struggling toward greater self-confidence- and a sweetness to the advice some of the characters give. Gene Wilder's Mock Turtle and his duet ... Read More
