Alice in Wonderland(1903)
Silent and first film adaptation of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland sees a young girl follow a white rabbit down a burrow into a fantastical world.
Based on the original illustrations in Lewis Carroll's children’s book, this early piece of cinema is an example of how richly imaginative and fantastical worlds born on paper can be re-staged and brought to life through film. Learners may compare this short archival piece with the original text as well as other film adaptations.
