Planting one squarely in Mr. Burton's eye, tonight we take a look at those who've journeyed down rabbit holes and lived to tell the tale. Featuring:
LICK THE STAR (Sofia Coppola, 15mins)
The Lost In Translation director's first film takes us into a world of bitchy high school poison plots and hidden notes in the classroom. Great soundtrack for a short too - Free Kitten, Shonen Knife...
I, AN ACTRESS and HOLD ME WHEN I'M NAKED (George Kuchar, 25mins)
This is REAL underground film, from one of the two brothers Kuchar - camp, disturbing, hilarious and raw, these are two of the finest excerpts from over half a century of Wonderland exploration. A rare treat.

live! COLUMBUS & CRUSOE
Coming to us from Lewisham where they reside with a ghost and a cat, Columbus & Crusoe meld perfect folk-tinged songwriting (think Bill Callahan, Silver Jews) with your modern city life, and share members with luminaries like Trash Kit, Holly & Jessika, The Madrigals...

POLICE STATE (Nick Zedd, 15 mins)
In Zedd's case Wonderland is a cell and the mad hatter's tea party spells only brutality in this abrasive short from one of the key figures (alongside the likes of Richard Kern) in the Cinema of Transgression.

ALICE IN WONDERLAND (Cecil M. Hepworth, 10 mins)
The very first adaptation of Alice on the silver screen that has, you know, a plot and everything. We might take a look at one or two other past screen incarnations too.
THE ROUNDERS (Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle, 15 mins)
starring CHARLIE CHAPLIN & ROSCOE ARBUCKLE in a rare appearance together, soundtrack selection by The Ludovico Technique
