Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Alice in Wonderland is a 1985 two-part CBS Made-for-TV Movie adaptation of Lewis Carroll's books Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass.Directed by Harry Harris and produced by Irwin Allen, it stars Natalie Gregory as Alice and features an All-Star Cast of supporting players, including Red Buttons as the White Rabbit, Anthony Newley as the Mad Hatter, Jayne Meadows as the Queen of Hearts, Carol Channing as the White Queen, Roddy McDowall as the March Hare, Ann Jillian as The Red Queen, Robert Morley as the King of Hearts, Ringo Starr as the Mock Turtle, Sammy Davis Jr. as the Caterpillar, and Telly Savalas as the Cheshire Cat.In the film, seven-year-old Alice isn't allowed to participate in tea parties because her parents don't believe she is grown-up enough, and this becomes a driving factor for Alice through her journey, with Alice trying to be more grown up as a theme throughout. Musical numbers aside, the adaptation goes on to follow both books fairly closely, aided with costumed actors.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Adaptational Heroism: By the end of the second act, the Queen of Hearts shows a sympathetic side towards Alice (probably because Alice is a queen too by then) and even uses her famous command for good when the Jabberwocky attacks the party.

comment
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: A mild example. Alice's goal throughout all her adventures is to get back home and she repeatedly voices her homesickness, unlike in the books where she rarely thinks about going home and is a textbook Angst? What Angst? character. Even her fall down the rabbit hole is changed from the book's whimsical scene into a darkly realistic fall with her shrieking in terror all the way down, and the Looking-Glass half of the film takes this trope even further by having the threat of the monstrous Jabberwocky loom over her journey.
