Dot in Snowland

Today in Connecticut we are experiencing snow, high winds and close to whiteout conditions. Not a day to be out sitting in a movie theater wondering how high the snow will be when the movie ends. Having read that Alice in Wonderland was named in Moviefone's Top 50 movies of 2010 and nominated for a Golden Globe, it occurred to me that this would be a good time to catch up on this movie through Netflix streaming. I didn't see Alice when it was on the big screen for two reasons, I've never been a fan of book nor am I a fan of Tim Burton. And it turned out to be just what I thought - creepy. It is not a stretch to think that any child seeing this movie could have nightmares or crazy dreams for awhile. Actually, to me that movie was just a long crazy dream that many menopausal women experience.  I don't recommend this movie unless you are a big Tim Burton fan or a Lewis Carroll devotee. Of course, there is usually something positive in every movie, the actress who played Alice was wonderful, Johnny Depp can break dance, Tweedledee and Tweedledum are endearing.
