While the plot and basic structure follow Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and, at times, its sequel Through the Looking-Glass , it is the execution of the characters that sets this adaptation apart. The White Rabbit (Larry Gelman) is depicted as a decidedly lecherous guide, while the Mad Hatter (Alan Novak) claims that the size of his hat corresponds to the size of his "thing-a-ma-jig" at nine and seven-eighths inches. When Alice innocently asks, "May I touch it again?", the film makes its central joke clear: a repressed young woman encountering an uninhibited world of adult desire.
Unlike many adult films that focus purely on voyeuristic gratification, Alice centers its narrative on the protagonist’s internal journey. The film is framed as a coming-of-age story (or rather, a coming-out story) where Alice sheds her societal repression. By the time she wakes up, she is ready to engage with her partner with a newfound sense of agency and joy. Alice In Wonderland An X Rated Musical Fantasy 1976
