Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
Golden Globe nominee Scarlett Johansson's performance of Lewis Carroll’s enduring classic is joyous and exuberant. From the White Rabbit to the Cheshire Cat, each madcap character is given a distinct voice and personality that will leave a lasting impression long after the adventure is over.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland remains one of the most widely read, deconstructed, referenced, and reinterpreted works of Western fiction. It tells the story of the young and imaginative Alice, who grows weary of her storybook, one 'without pictures or conversations', and follows a hasty hare underground - to come face to face with a host of strange and fantastic characters.
