"Calling all cards, calling all cards..."
1 July 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Paramount Pictures came out with a theatrical version of "Alice in Wonderland" in 1933, an all black and white production featuring many of the principal players under contract to the studio. This cartoon followed by two years, Walt Disney's take on how Mickey Mouse might have reacted if he went through the proverbial looking glass. The animation, color and creativity are quite good, and I'm always astonished by how professional some of these offerings are considering the era in which they were made. Making the 'King' jealous, Mickey dances with the Queen of Hearts, resulting in a dueling match, while the dance of the cards is a visual treat! It's really a fun story, and bound to delight one and all today, even if it's eighty years old.
