Yikes. Just watched it on DailyMotion. The Alice has the single most annoying speaking voice I have EVER heard in a flim. She has a whiney brooklyn accent very unsuitable for the character. Also, her hair truly DOES "want cutting" as the Mad Hatter says. It's so long it looks dead at the bottom, disgusting. Oh, and it doesn't help that she's way too old for the part. No wonder she never worked again after the early 1940's.
shareYou must also hate the charming Babes in Toyland with Laurel and Hardy. She starred in that too and I find her and her hair charming.
shareomg. you are sooooo right! this is the worst! w.c.fields could not read with less fun in his voice! lol Illeana Douglas has chosen this as one of her favorites, tonight, on TCM....go figure?!?!
shareI thought it was interesting. I wasn't expecting" Gone with the Wind" But I have seen plenty of worse films. The most Bizzare thing was watching Gary Cooper,an expert Horesman, falling off his horse every 5 seconds well besides Cary Grant's singing.
Oh GOOD!,my dog found the chainsaw

Frankly, I think that Disney's Animated version of Alice in Wonderland is not only too cutesy for my tastes, but it takes out the real story, to boot.
I thought that Alice In Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass, the real book, which was written by Lewis Carroll, was far, far better than this.
I have to admit that I did like Alice's long, straight, extra thick, yellow-blonde hair in the movie, however.
No,the worst version was made by Tim Burton.
shareI still love this movie.
If I was a child in 1933, I would have watched it at the "Movies" as often, as I could. Most kids today, don't get a chance to use their imagination very much, and that is a shame.
BTW, I see a lot of different feedback about Alice, and her looks.
The next time you watch this movie, look at her eyes, and you will see a young Helen Hunt.
I think the OP has this version confused with the 1931 version. I agree with him about Ruth Gilbert.
