68: Alice in Wonderland - Part 1 - Story Origins, Film, & Walkthrough Concept
Description
Was Alice really going to have a fish shack, a slide, and a glass maze?
In this episode of Distory, we celebrate our unbirthdays together as we begin our three-part series on the history of Alice in Wonderland. After discussing some oddities of Lewis Carroll's classic literary work, we walk with Walt through his early years with Alice, culminating in what he felt was a massive failure. But passed-over Aldous Huxley scripts and British critics aside, Alice was planned to be part of Disneyland's opening day... as a walk-through attraction. We end this episode by stepping into the madness of this concept art, having way too much fun along the way.
