A whimsical, early silent-film adaptation of Carroll's tale that prioritizes fantastical imagery and playful strangeness over narrative depth or emotional stakes.

This is the first movie version of the famous story. Alice dozes in a garden, awakened by a dithering white rabbit in waistcoat with pocket watch. She follows him down a hole and finds herself in a hall of many doors.
