Trivia
As in the original novel, the Mad Hatter's riddle, "How is a raven like a writing desk," has no answer. In later years, Lewis Carroll (grudgingly) provided an answer: "because the notes for which they are noted are not noted for being musical notes." Another popular answer is "because [Edgar Allan] Poe wrote on both."

Beautiful and haunting but not for everyone.

While I was looking forward to the movie when I heard of it being made, the subsequent reviews after it opened had me worried. After I decided to judge it for myself, I was surprised that the critics seemed to be so unanimously bent against the movie. Personally I found the story to be beautiful, well told and well acted, and supported by stunning cinematography and a sensitive direction. I guess it all comes down to personal sensibilities, imagination and perhaps expectations.

I see a lot of reviews that command you DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE and I say make up your own mind. Try it. See how you like it. Maybe you'll find yourself bored by dialogue if you like more action. Maybe you'll find the darkness of certain topics to be too much to bear for your overwrought heart. Maybe you'll wish it was a movie made for children so you can watch something with your kids.

Or maybe, just maybe, you haven't forgotten how to dream and you'll find it enchanting, moving and poignant and you will enjoy the time you spent chasing after shadows on the edge of Wonderland.
