The 1915 silent film Alice in Wonderland is one of the earliest cinematic adaptations of Lewis Carroll's beloved story. Notable for its inventive costumes and sets, the film certainly delighted 1915 audiences, although the giant animal heads on human bodies are also somewhat oppressive, highlighting a darker side to this classic coming-of-age story.
