"Well, it all started while I was sitting on the riverbank with Dinah." - Alice
"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (commonly shortened to "Alice in Wonderland"), is a 1865 novel written by English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson who wrote under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. Disney reworked the story to fit with both a younger audience and a time frame suitable for an animated film (it's run time is only 75 minutes).
Kathryn
Beaumont, who was born in London England, was just 10 years old when
she was chosen for the voice of Alice. Walt Disney personally cast
Beaumont after seeing her in the film "On an Island with You," in which
the child actress had a small role. Disney was so impressed by her that
she was also chosen to be the model for Alice, and would also go on to
provide the voice for Wendy in "Peter Pan," 1953. Beaumont has also
reprised her voice acting role as Alice in two episodes of the animated
series, Disney's "House of Mouse," and as both Alice and Wendy in the
video game "Kingdom Hearts." She did not retire as the voice of Alice
and Wendy until 2005, when her role for these two characters was taken
over by Hynden Walch.
Initial
design for the character of Alice was accomplished by Mary Blair during
the storyboard phase and also by Les Clark. Alice was animated by Ollie
Johnston and also by Marc Davis, who animated her for the tea party
scene.
This wonderful cel of Alice as she is falling down the Rabbit Hole into Wonderland. Cels from this key sequence are very rare, and highly collected. An absolutely perfect full figure, eyes and mouth open image of Alice; and a great addition to any animation collection!
