Alice's Family
Apparently this is a foreign production, although the original could be French, Dutch or German. I don't know the date it was made, either.
There are several in the series, and I think this is the first one.
It has really neat opening theme music.
Alice. She enters some kind of antiques store.
Af3
She opens an old trunk and finds a magician's hat in it.
Suddenly a rabbit appears.
Alice's mother and her cook. There's a lot of talk about pepper and how Alice's father can't get enough of it. Alice's mother is not really nice to her as she is trying to bring up Alice according to the old traditional way and she is scolding Alice almost all the time.
Benny the bunny. It tells Alice that only people with imagination can hear it, and that most people don't have any imagination. Dinah chases the bunny. Alice looks under the bed for it and her mother enters, saying the croquet game has already started.
Alice is supposed to go to some get-together outside. Her mother and one of her sisters are both nasty to her, telling her to hurry up, etc, and the sister tries to boss Alice just like the mother does. Dinah, of course, chases the rabbit in Alice's absence.
The croquet match.
Somehow Benny and Dinah got outside and are now running all around the gathering.
Suddenly a huge rabbit appears and Dinah makes tracks out of there.
The rabbit complains about being late and goes into a hole in the hill.
Then Bennie Bunny shows up again. He tells Alice that the White Rabbit is his uncle.
They start falling down the rabbit hole after Bennie says he'll take Alice to Wonderland.
They encounter the room of doors, but unlike the story, one of the doors is already open and it's big enough for Alice to go through.
Alice sees the castle.
