Man Crush Monday Part 3

Alice in Wonderland

Happens to be one of my favorites. I even had an Alice in Wonderland themed bridal shower...

There are many morals in this story even though it just seems like a children's dreamland fairytale.
Alice is constantly asked by the characters who she is, and she doesn't really know. As the movie progresses she own identity and works to overcome her fears.

Cheshire Cat: What do you call yourself?
Alice Kingsley: Alice.
Cheshire Cat: *The* Alice?
Alice Kingsley: There's been some debate about that.
Cheshire Cat: I never get involved in politics.
[disappears]

The Mad Hatter: You're not the same as you were before You were much more..."muchier" You've lost your "muchness"
Alice Kingsley: My "muchness"?
The Mad Hatter: [Points to Alice's heart] In there.

To think outside of the box, think creatively. Alice's father says to her that he thinks of 6 impossible things before breakfast every day. Which Alice later goes on to repeat to herself later on in the movie to give herself strength.

Alice Kingsley: I try to believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast. Count them, Alice. One, there are drinks that make you shrink. Two, there are foods that make you grow. Three, animals can talk. Four, cats can disappear. Five, there is a place called Underland. Six, I can slay the Jabberwocky.

Then there are the characters, costumes and the scenery! Its all amazing!

The talented Helena Bonham Carter - Red Queen

The voice of Michael Sheen - White Rabbit

The beautiful Anne Hathaway - White Queen

Matt Lucas as Tweedledee and Tweedledum

Alan Rickman's voice is the Blue Caterpillar

The versatile Johnny Depp - The Mad Hatter




What are your thoughts on Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland? What morals did you take away from it?

And as always what Tim Burton / Johnny Depp collaboration would you like to see next week featured on Man Crush Monday???
