ALICE IN CARTOONLAND – The 35mm Collection

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 direct from 35mm nitrate negatives.
