It is impossible to enter into any discussion without acknowledging that this is probably the greatest name to a sequel that has ever been given in the history of cinema.

Alice in Wonderland
(1966)

Kevin Carr

There is a place for the BBC's Alice in Wonderland, but for me, it's more for historical significance and a quite impressive gathering of respected actors in one film.

Alice's world is far loonier and mad - and has more teeth. It was a fine departure from the fairy tales of Cinderella and Snow White.
