Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland

Directed by Norman Z. Mc Leod 76 mins (1933)

Gary Cooper โ€“ White Knight

On a boring winter afternoon, Alice dreams that sheโ€™s visiting the land behind the mirror. This turns out to be a surrealistic nightmare, with all sorts of strange things happening to her, like changing her size or playing croquet with flamingos.

Also starring Charlotte Henry, Richard Arlen, Roscoe Ates, William Austin,  Leon Errol and Cary Grant

Virtually the entire star stable was thrown into this movie because Paramount was trying to keep from going bankrupt and thought that such a star-laden movie could save the studio from failing. It didn't work since most of the stars couldn't be recognized because of their costumes. Instead, two Mae West movies, She Done Him Wrong and Iโ€™m No Angel saved the studio from bankruptcy instead.
