Movie Trivia – Alice in Wonderland
Memorable Movie Quotes
Alice: If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn’t be, and what it wouldn’t be, it would. You see?
Alice: Curiouser and curiouser.
Alice: It would be so nice if something would make sense for a change.
White Rabbit: [singing] I’m late / I’m late / For a very important date. / No time to say “Hello, Goodbye”. / I’m late, I’m late, I’m late.
Queen of Hearts: I warn you, child… if I lose my temper, you lose your head! Understand?
Alice: When I get home I shall write a book about this place… If I ever do get home.
Queen of Hearts: Off with their heads.
Trivia
In the Walrus and the Carpenter sequence, the R in the word “March” on the mother oyster’s calendar flashes. This alludes to the old adage about only eating oysters in a month with an R in its name. That is because those months without an R (May, June, July, August) are the summer months in England, when oysters would not keep due to the heat, in the days before refrigeration.
This movie is actually a combination of Lewis Carroll’s two “Alice” books, “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass”.
Kathryn Beaumont, who was the voice of Alice, narrates the “Alice in Wonderland” ride at Disneyland.
