This is a magical and fun cartoon short featuring Mickey Mouse as he falls asleep while reading Alice Through the Looking Glass and dreams about his adventures in Wonderland himself.
In his dream, Mickey goes through a host of adventures, from playing jump rope with a live phone, watching a nutcracker crack nuts, leading a march with a deck of cards, dancing with the Queen of Hearts and fencing with the King of Spades. My favorite scene is when the playing cards take on the role of soldiers and go after poor Mickey, under the King of Spades' orders after catching him dancing with his Queen. There were cards everywhere, coming from the row of poker chips and from inside a desk drawer.
It's great fun, and a great reference to Alice in Wonderland. Truly magical.
