Discovery that will improve some day of mine as soon as I can afford it: Jonathan Miller's Alice in Wonderland (1966) is finally out on DVD in a region I can watch. One of the extras is Dennis Potter's Wednesday Play Alice (1965), essentially his first version of Dreamchild (1985). My thanks go out to Tim Burton for providing the timely excuse: I had just been planning to pine for the BFI's Alice series. Now if only someone would get around to releasing a real DVD of Dreamchild.
