“…going down, down the rabbit hole.” Sounds familiar? Of course it is. It is one of the most famous quotes from the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland or commonly referred to as "Alice in Wonderland" a novel written by English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll in 1865.
We have seen so many versions of Alice in Wonderland. There are both live version and animated versions of the novel. The oldest version film adaptation of Alice in Wonderland was made way back in 1903 in a silent film. And the latest adaptation of the famous children’s literature is the 3D fantasy-adventure film that uses a combined live action and animation technique.
The “new” Alice in Wonderland is directed by veteran director Tim Burton who is famous for his dark and quirky-themed films. Mia Wasikowska plays the lead character Alice, Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter, Anne Hathaway as The White Queen, Helena Bonham Carter as The Red Queen and Crispin Glover as The Knave of Hearts, Stephen Fry as the Cheshire Cat, Christopher Lee as the Jabberwock and many other.
Scenes in the movie are set in the Victorian. On the movie, Alice is now all grown-up, she’s 19, attends a party at a Victorian estate only to find she is about to be proposed to by a rich suitor. She runs off and Alice tumbles down, down, down a rabbit-hole in pursuit of a White Rabbit she finds herself in Wonderland, again.
Alice did not remember the Wonderland, a place she visited many years before when she was younger. Since Alice left, the Red Queen took over all of Wonderland, and made life great for her, while ruining everyone else’s life. Alice remains completely unaware of why she is in Wonderland, and is confused about the fact that she had once visited Wonderland years before. She then embarks big and small on an adventure of self discovery to save Wonderland from the Red Queen’s reign of terror with the help of her Wonderland friends.
Alice in Wonderland 3D is set to be released on theaters on March 5, 2010. You can watch it on regular theaters or in IMAX 3D theaters. You may also watch Alice in Wonderland Online. We will provide you links for free online streaming and download.
