Editorial Review:
Description:
Walt Disney produced 57 'Alice' cartoons between 1923 and 1927. The series owed its success to both its clever special effects – cartoon characters interacting with a live young girl cleverly superimposed within the frame – and its breezy humor. The cartoons on this DVD have remarkable clarity because they were transferred directly from 35mm nitrate negatives. Bonus Features: Scene Selection| Trailers| Bios| 'Alice in Hollywood' by JB Kaufman, co-author, with Russell Merritt, of 'Walt in Wonderland: The Silent Films of Walt Disney'| Three cartoons from the seldom seen 'Life Cartoon Comedy' series, re-titled 'Krazy Kid Cartoons' for their 1930 sound reissue.| Synopsis of each of the cartoons on the DVD with a click to play feature. Specs: DVD9; Dolby Digital; 92 minutes; B&W; 1.33:1 Aspect Ratio; MPAA – NR; Year - 1925, 1927; SRP - $19.99.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Superb Picture Quality, lacks a little Alice
This DVD is wonderful. Three points I'd like to make (and I'll keep them short and sweet).
1. The prints are magnificent and above average. I have over 17 DVDs and VHS videos with Alice in Wonderland film shorts and have rarely seen better picture quality.
2. Since Virginia Davis, who played ALice in these film shorts, is still alive, it would have been nice to have her commenting about her experiences on the set, and how fans have worshipped her other the years. Still, that might ... Read More
Rating:  - DVNR Cost It A Star :-(
Now that this collection has been officially released, I figured that it is now safe to express an opinion about it. The fact that I've ACTUALLY WATCHED IT is just that much more reason to weigh in, so here goes...
Back in the 1920s, before "Walt Disney" was an international household name, our boy produced a series of silent-era cartoons about a young girl (the titular "Alice") interacting with animated characters within a cartoon universe.
After Walt struck gold with Mickey ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent quality! Disney could not have done better if they released this themselves!
Kudos to KIT*PARKER*FILMS and VCI home video for releasing this top quality DVD mastered from almost pristine 35mm nitrate negatives. The image is razor-sharp, the contrast is great! Outside of the Disney Treasures Rarities DVD release, when was the last time you could see every detail in Alice's dress?
Contents:
1) (1926) Alice's Orphan - also on the Inkwell DVD release.
2) (1925) Alice's Tin Pony
3) (1925) Alice in the Jungle - also on both Disney & Inkwell DVDs. ... Read More
Rating:  - ALICE IN CARTOONLAND, or Deja vu all over again!
It is interesting that a review has been posted before the DVD has been released. You will notice that the contents described including Alice the Toreador (1925), Alice's Egg Plant (1925), Alice Rattled by Rats (1925), Alice in the Jungle (1925), Alice on the Farm (1925), Alice's Orphan (1925) and Alice the Whaler (1927.) are from my program, ALICE IN CARTOONLAND released in 2000, and not this new VCI release. While I am sure that the 35mm sources should in theory be nice, not having seen the quality fo ... Read More
