Adaptation List: Faithful adaptations (Film, TV, radio and other media)
A list chronicling adaptations of the Alice novels (excluding reimaginings)
With help from the bloggers Still-she-Haunts-me-phantomwise and Curiouser and Curiouser.
Also with the contributions of EmilieDuTurfu
This is a collaboration between friends, with Phantom and curiouser finding an awful lot of things and doing a awful lot of hard work. I found a few things, but this is just a document of what we all did and continue to do.
This is hopefully the most cohesive TV and film timeline of Alice adaptations around.
You're welcome to use this as a resource, as long as you credit our research.
