"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.
While
a shrunken Alice is chasing after the White Rabbit, she runs into a
flower garden where she encounters a large group of beautiful flowers.
Alice begins to talk with them and the flowers exclaim they can sing,
and The Red Rose (the leader) says, "Girls! We shall sing "Golden Afternoon". That's about all of us." After
the song, all the flowers try to figure out what kind of flower is
Alice. When Alice replies that she isn't a flower, they determine that
she must be a weed and change their attitude towards her; and they chase
her out of their garden.
This
is a very rare original production animation cel of The Lily
from "Alice In
Wonderland," 1951. Her flower face is wonderfully composed of petals, stamen, and pistol. A beautiful and great addition to any animation art collection.
