Synopsis by Bill Warren

This, the first sound version of Lewis Carroll's famous novel, includes many of the expected scenes: Alice (Ruth Gilbert) meets the White Rabbit (Ralph Hertz), as well as the bad-tempered Cook (Lillian Ardell) and the Duchess (Mabel Wright). She has tea, or tries to, with the Mad Hatter (Leslie King), the March Hare (Meyer Berensen) and the Dormouse (Raymond Schultz), and the Cheshire Cat (Tom Corless) leaves his grin behind. The Caterpillar (Jimmy Rosen) becomes annoyed with her, and the Queen of Hearts (Vie Quinn) threatens to cut off her head. With the Duchess, Alice meets the Mock Turtle (Gus Alexander) and the Gryphon (Charles Silvern), and at a bizarre trial, Alice finally becomes fed up with all the strange events and people.
