Alice in Wonderland (1915 film)

This vintage movie poster from the 1915 American silent film adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s classic novel, “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.” Directed and written by W. W. Young, the film stars Viola Savoy as Alice. Notably, this version combines chapters from both “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking-Glass.” Although much of the looking-glass portion is lost, the film captures key moments from Carroll’s whimsical tale. The premiere took place at the Strand Theatre in New York, where audiences enthusiastically embraced this delightful cinematic interpretation of Alice’s fantastical journey.

“Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” commonly known as “Alice in Wonderland,” is an 1865 English children’s novel written by Lewis Carroll. The story follows a young girl named Alice who falls through a rabbit hole into a whimsical and fantastical world inhabited by anthropomorphic creatures. With its imaginative tales, riddles, and iconic characters, the book has become one of the most beloved works of English-language fiction. British artist John Tenniel notably illustrated the novel, adding to its enduring charm.
