Old School Alice

I've been re-reading Alice in Wonderland lately and remembering how much I enjoy the humor. I'm thinking about going back and reading some of the novels I was assigned in high school as I know I'll have a completely different experience with them now. I came across this footage from the first film adaptation of Alice in Wonderland which was released in 1903. Time hasn't been good to the film but it has some pretty impressive (for the time) special effects when Alice shrinks and grows. If you're a fan of Alice then I'd say it's definitely worth a watch! Here's a bit more information on the history of this little film. I love how quirky it is!
