Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a 10-minute black-and-white silent film made in the United States in 1910,[1] and is based on Lewis Carroll's 1865 book of the same name.
Produced by the Edison Manufacturing Company and directed by Edwin S. Porter, the film starred Gladys Hulette as Alice.[1][2] Being a silent film, naturally all of Lewis Carroll's nonsensical prose could not be used, and, being only a one-reel picture, many of the memorable characters in Carroll's original 1865 novel similarly could not be included. What was used in the film was faithful in spirit to Carroll, and in design to the original John Tenniel illustrations. Variety complimented the picture by comparing it favorably to the "foreign" film fantasies then flooding American cinemas.[3]
