ALICE.
If our film was to be made in full then it would not continue in this surreal way. Furthermore it would change from black and white, into colour; similar to what happens in "The Wizard of Oz" when Dorothy wakes up in Munchkin Land. Our film will change after this section because the film is about Alice Guy and this first section is just an artistic way of illustrating her childhood. We decided on this because a full length surrealist film would not only be very heavy going for the audience but doing this would make it quite impossible to illustrate Alice Guy's life story. The changing of black and white to colour will illustrate how the first section is in the past and now the film will focus on a more present time-although the time period would still be the 1920s as a result of Alice Guy pioneering in this decade.
The "Alice in Wonderland" theme is more of an underlying theme and means that the title "Alice" almost really has a double meaning. The film is first and foremost about Alice Guy and her life's work as a french female director, "Alice in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll simply provided inspiration.
Here is the colour chance in The Wizard of Oz:
