Alice in Wonderland is a 1903 silent film directed by Cecil Hepworth and starring May Clark in this more twisted version of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

There are good special effects for the early 1900s of Alice shrinking and growing in the doll house.

Parts of the movie are lost but what remains is available as a bonus feature on the 1966 BBC DVD. There is only one known copy of this film remaining (except, of course, the BBC re-issues from 1966) so the British Film Institute are unable to restore the missing parts.
