Lenny's description:
Alice in Wonderland movie from 1985. Now finally available on DVD: Harry Harris's T.V. movie with the famous guest stars. A well known version that many people are searching for.

It consist of two parts: Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass, which are both included on this dvd.

The movie is based on Carroll's books, but the script was adapted to suit the famous guest stars. The Jabberwock may be a little too scary for young children.

Seller's description:
Sometimes she's too big. Or much too small. Sometimes things are backwards. And there's always too much pepper in the soup! Nothing is quite right since Alice chased a very unusual White Rabbit and stumbled into an adventure that grows curiouser and curiouser. One of the greatest childhood fantasies is captured in Irwin Allen's colorful production adapted from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The stellar cast features dozens of Hollywood's biggest names, including Red Buttons, Sammy Davis,Jr. and Beau Bridges. The legendary Steve Allen wrote the jolly, witty songs. Alice is looking for a way home. And happy to be welcomed into yours.

Amazon.com:
The king of 1970s disaster movies, producer Irwin Allen, brought together novelist Paul Zindel, songwriter Steve Allen, and a host of celebrities for a pair of 1985 TV movies paying homage to Lewis Carroll's Alice. In this first installment, the 7-year-old girl dreams of being grown up enough to join the adults for tea, only to shrink to miniature size, climb through a hole beneath the door, and follow a twitchy Red Buttons in big white rabbit ears. Whether arguing with the Mad Hatter (Anthony Newley), or trying to keep her head in the company of the Queen of Hearts (Jayne Meadows), Alice is constantly running into a host of '70s and '80s personalities like Telly Savalas, Ringo Starr, Scott Baio, and Shelley Winters. If this roster isn't enough to make a poor girl trippy, she also meets up with Sammy Davis Jr. as the caterpillar, and the pair perform an entertaining hip-hop-esque tap number to "Father William." An enjoyably campy version of Alice's wondrous journey, it features detailed sets, marvelously tacky costumes, and mildly clever musical numbers. This 90-minute TV movie's pleasant goofiness will amuse children 4 and older as well as nostalgically minded adults. The TV movie has been broken into two parts on video with Alice Through the Looking Glass picking up where this one leaves off. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Average Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars


Rating: 3.0 out of 5 stars - The worst actress ever
Although the made for television movie is rather faithful to the book, the lead, Natalie Gregory, is a horrible actress.



Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars - Alice in Wonderland [TV 1985]
I love this movie when I was growing up! It has famous celebrities in there that most know who they are (Sammy Davis Jr, Carol Channing, Jayne Meadows, Partick Duffy, Red Buttons, Steve Allen, Beau Bridges and more). I takes you back to your younger days and anyone will enjoy it. I watch it over and over.



Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars - blast from the past
i really enjoyed this movie. i remember watching it when i was around 4 or 5 years old on tv. i'd definitely recommend this movie for children who don't mind sitting down and watching a movie.



Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars - Excellent Movie
I loved watching this movie as a child. We recorded it off of tv on a VHS tape, but the first 1/2 hour was missing. It is so awesome to have this on DVD and be able to someday introduce my own children to the songs and lovely characters and performers featured in this movie!!!



Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars - Alice in Wonderland
I really enjoy this version of Alice in Wonderland. It's got the creepy feel but also had a musical side to it to kinda break up the drama rollercoaster. The costumes are great and the set is very fantastical and fun to watch. I highly recommend it!
