Which would you pick…reality or Wonderland?
Phoebe in Wonderland
"The tea party's coming, "Mrs. Dodger, the drama teacher said. What would you think if you heard someone say those words? Well Phoebe Litchen (Elle Fanning) thinks those words are inspiring.
Phoebe is not a normal girl: her sister (Baile Madison) thinks she's crazy, her mother (Felicity Huffman) thinks she needs a therapist, her father (Bill Pullman) says she's a handful, but Mrs. Dodger (Patricia Clarkson) thinks she wonderful. Un-decided about signing up for the play, Alice in Wonderland, her imagination finally encourages her to "jump".
Signing up for the school production that Phoebe knows all about Wonderland was a good idea, for her mother is writing a dissertation on this magical place. "Jump," the red queen says. "Jump", Mrs. Dodger, the drama teacher says. "Don't jump," her mother says. Phoebe's mother is not ready to take on such a case of Tourette syndrome.
It doesn't take long to see the magical essence in this wonderful place that Phoebe sees. The Director (Daniel Barnz) really made this movie stand out because you can relate to her in school, at home, and even in the theater. He also gives us a good taste of how Tourette syndrome feels. When Phoebe spits she can't help it, she just spits. She can't help most of her actions, it's her biggest flaw. She says, "It's going to get worse before it gets better."
Elle Fanning really pulls you in to the movie when she struggles through living in wonderland and reality at the same time. There's arguing with her mother, and chatting with the red queen, going to the therapist, and then later imagining him dressed up as Humpty Dumpty.
From looking glass land, to her own home, this movie really is a great plot of a small girl which has a big problem, but finally realizing it while she tries to get it under control. I think this is a great movie that absolutely everyone will want and enjoy to watch.
