Alice Through the Looking Glass, February 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Alice Through Looking Glass [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I am in my 40s and saw this on TV back in the 70s. I've been searching for a copy for years - I learned how to say the alphabet backwards because of this show which was useful in entertaining friends for years and I still remember it! This particular version cast Agnes Moorehead, Nannette Fabray, Jimmy Durante, Jonathan Winters and others that youngsters today don't know, but it is immensely fun to watch, in spite of the lack of hi-tech special effects! I highly recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars
delightful musical, May 31, 2001
This review is from: Alice Through Looking Glass [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This television special of ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, originally telecast in 1966, is a very delightful musical that is a joy to watch.
Judi Rolin plays Alice. She has a remarkable singing voice and dances wonderfully, but her acting style is somewhat lacking, sometimes cloying and a little over-the-top.
Roy Castle, as Lester the Jester, has a ball, and also sings and dances wonderfully. There is Tom and Dick Smothers as Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and Jack Palance as the Jabberwock.
In featured roles are Agnes Moorehead and Robert Coote as the Red Queen and King, and Nanette Fabray and Ricardo Montalban as the White Queen and King.
There's also the fabulous Iris Adrian as Tiger Lilly, Jackie Joseph as Daisy, Richard Denning as Father and Jimmy Durante as Humpty Dumpty.
The fantastic songs are by Moose Charlap ("Peter Pan") and Elsie Simmons, and the highly imaginative costumes are by Bob Mackie.
The stunning television presentation is a must for all Alice and musical fans!

This movie is very good., November 2, 1999

This is a musical fantasy. Judy Rolan is a great singer. It's a comedy movie and you'll love it My mom said she ordered an "Alice in Wonderland" staring Natalie Gregory. She said it would come around my birthday. When it was my Birthday she gave me a present. I opened it and it was an "Alice Through the Looking Glass" movie. I was angry. I watched it and fell in love with it. I encourage you to buy it.
