1 00:00:07,445 --> 00:00:10,221 After the eponymous tale of Lewis Carroll 2 00:00:10,628 --> 00:00:12,397 Alice in Wonderland 3 00:00:13,599 --> 00:00:14,719 Part One 4 00:00:16,460 --> 00:00:20,420 The author of this tale Lewis Carroll 5 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:25,939 well known mathematician, logician, linguist 6 00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:37,000 He wrote it in the middle of the last century during walkabouts near Oxford on the banks of river Thames. 7 00:00:37,219 --> 00:00:45,140 He wrote it because little girls, his nice friends, asked him to. 8 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:56,039 Lewis Carroll wrote a strange tale: everything in it is like in a tale yet not at all like any other tale. 9 00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:04,879 And so: Alice got bored sitting idle on the riverbank. 10 00:01:05,099 --> 00:01:09,579 She looked into a book, but there were no pictures or conversations in it. 11 00:01:10,060 --> 00:01:17,840 Alice's thoughts flew slowly and free. She was getting drowsy because of the heat. 12 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:29,700 I'm late! My God, how late i am! The Duchess will be furious. 13 00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:31,600 Simply furious! 14 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:42,280 Only now Alice realized she had never before seen a rabbit with a pocket watch and, moreover, with a waistcoat. 15 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,359 Burning in curiosity she ran after him. 16 00:01:49,859 --> 00:01:55,519 Oh...if i fall, then i fall... 17 00:01:56,980 --> 00:02:01,579 and falling down the stairs is now small potatoes for me 18 00:02:02,060 --> 00:02:09,699 my folks will think i'm really courageous. i wouldn't whine even if i fell off the roof. 19 00:02:14,479 --> 00:02:19,899 Either the well was very deep or Alice was falling very slow, 20 00:02:19,900 --> 00:02:26,700 and she had enough time to come to her senses and to think about what will be next. 21 00:02:29,500 --> 00:02:35,219 Excuse me, sir, would you tell me how much have i flown already? 22 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:47,080 I'm probably approaching the centre of the Earth. That is, i think, about 4000 miles downwards. 23 00:02:48,180 --> 00:02:51,159 And what if i fall through the whole Earth? 24 00:02:53,759 --> 00:03:04,000 That will be fun! People are walking heads-down there, what were they called? Antipati...it seems..no! 25 00:03:04,340 --> 00:03:06,819 No, yes - antopodes! 26 00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:15,340 Alice kept falling and falling...Dinah will be looking for me whole evening, she thought. 27 00:03:15,340 --> 00:03:17,599 Dinah was her cat. 28 00:03:18,099 --> 00:03:26,919 Oh, Dinah, what a pity you're not with me. Albeit, there are no mice in the air. But there's plenty of gnats. 29 00:03:27,060 --> 00:03:35,960 Do cats eat gnats? Do cats eat gnats? No, do gnats eat cats? 30 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:56,039 Oh, my whiskers! My poor ears! Duchess won't forgive being late. She'll be furious! 31 00:03:57,620 --> 00:04:07,920 Remembering it afterwards, Alice thought she had to be surprised. But at that time everything seemed completely natural to her 32 00:04:07,919 --> 00:04:10,899 and Alice darted after the white rabbit. 33 00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:18,560 But white rabbit was nowhere to be found. Alice found herself in long hall. 34 00:04:28,579 --> 00:04:38,419 Alice decided this key was from a door. But alas! Either the lock was too big, or the key was too small 35 00:04:39,180 --> 00:04:42,379 and she could not open this door. 36 00:04:43,699 --> 00:04:47,620 To Alice's great delight, the key fitted this door. 37 00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:56,259 Oh, how she wanted to get out of here! But she couldn't even stick her head through the hole. 38 00:04:57,779 --> 00:05:03,479 And even if head did get through - of what use? Who needs head without shoulders? 39 00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:13,759 Drink Me. 40 00:05:14,660 --> 00:05:21,980 Alice knew that various bad things had happened to children simply because they didn't want to observe three rules. 41 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:30,600 These were simple rules: if you hold hot poker in your hand for too long, you'll eventually get burned. 42 00:05:31,079 --> 00:05:35,620 If you cut finger too deeply with a knife, it usually starts bleeding. 43 00:05:35,620 --> 00:05:44,120 And if you drink bottle labeled "Poison" the sooner or later you'll almost certainly feel bad in the stomach. 44 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:54,660 The last rule Alice remembered well. Having made sure there were no labels in the bottle, Alice drank from it. 45 00:05:56,220 --> 00:06:04,720 Oh, strange feeling. I'm probably folding like a telescope. 46 00:06:24,139 --> 00:06:25,379 Eat Me. 47 00:06:28,339 --> 00:06:36,079 Alise saw her legs running down...one more moment and they'll be out of sight! 48 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:42,759 Good-bye, my legs! My poor legs! 49 00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:50,860 Who will draw socks and shoes on you? And what will be do without each other? 50 00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:56,899 Oh, well, i'll send them new boots as a present. 51 00:07:06,300 --> 00:07:07,980 Excuse me, sir! 52 00:07:15,660 --> 00:07:23,160 You only think what a strange day this is! Is this me or not me? 53 00:07:23,660 --> 00:07:29,200 It seems, this is not exactly me. That's so complicated! 54 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,319 So, let's try to remember geography. 55 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:43,220 London is capital of Paris. Paris is capital of...Rome. No, it's not that. 56 00:07:43,660 --> 00:07:45,520 Better try to recite poems. 57 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:51,600 Here's the house what was built by a bug. 58 00:07:51,980 --> 00:07:58,620 And this is singer who is kept in a dark chamber and a house what was built by a bug. 59 00:07:59,899 --> 00:08:17,739 And this is cheerful empress who frequently bites the singer who is kept in a dark chamber...in the house what was built by a bug. 60 00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:20,680 It's completely not right words... 61 00:08:21,339 --> 00:08:22,839 So is this me or not me? 62 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:40,920 Just to think about it: that from some thing one can shrink go much as to become no-thing...no, no, let's get away faster. 63 00:08:42,500 --> 00:08:51,200 Just to grow a little bit...and after that i'll find a way to that beautiful garden! 64 00:08:52,200 --> 00:09:03,860 That was a brilliant idea, moreover, Alice knew she had to drink or eat something to grow. But there was nothing suitable around. 65 00:09:14,220 --> 00:09:19,519 Wonderland is full of wonders and all is possible here. 66 00:09:19,519 --> 00:09:25,039 You grow as far as heaven and then down again. 67 00:09:27,860 --> 00:09:33,039 Then your legs in five minutes get much longer.... 68 00:09:33,259 --> 00:09:38,240 They go wherever they please, but you need to go back. 69 00:09:41,580 --> 00:09:46,540 There's one trouble in Wonderland - it's somehow indistinct: 70 00:09:46,899 --> 00:09:58,199 when you are going not-there, will you come back? when you are going not-there, are you coming back?
