Alice in Wonderland (1915)
Directed by W. W. Young
Writing credits:
Lewis Carroll book
W. W. Young
Cast:
Viola Savoy .... Alice
Viola Savoy was fifteen years old at the time, and a well known
child actress for having toured the nation for several years in the
road-show version of "The Littlest Rebel." Whether she was the first to
perform the role of Virgie in that play, or not, clearly she was the
most popular, which fact contributed to her being cast as Alice in this
film. As interviewed in 1912 she had been acting since infancy in over
one hundred and twenty different productions. After the "Alice" film,
however, she appeared in no more than one or two more films before
disappearing from the pages of history.
