Thru the Mirror - Wikipedia In this cartoon short, Mickey has a Through the Looking-Glass -type dream that he travels through his mirror and enters a topsy-turvy world where everything is Through the Mirror. While Through the Mirror, he engages in a Fred Astaire dance number Through the Mirror a pair of gloves and a pack of cards, until the cards chase him out of the bizarre world. It was the 83rd Mickey Mouse short film to be released, the fourth of that year. The title is written as Thru the Mirror on the title card, but the alternative spelling Through the Mirror is used on the poster for the film. An astral projection of himself presumably Mickey in his dream state leaves his Through the Mirror and passes through his mirror into an alternate version of his house. His furniture and possessions have come to life and are complete with faces and personalities, but most Through the Mirror them remain motionless. He jumps on a rocking chair that throws him off in annoyance while a nearby coat rack watches in surprise, and lands on the footrest that behaves like a puppy while Mickey rides on it like a horse until it jumps into the rocking chair. While the chair tries to calm down the footrest, Mickey tries to comfort them, only to end up angering them instead. He bumps into an umbrella, who scolds him until it suddenly drops open and recloses itself in embarrassment before returning to where it originally was. Mickey then comes across a nut cracker breaking open a walnut, who then offers it to him while it eats the shells. After eating the walnut, Mickey's lower body commences to wildly Through the Mirror around, and it hits his face. While his lower body crazily spins, he suddenly becomes gigantic and then shrinks. The telephone suddenly rings and it throws its receiver down to Mickey, who uses it to climb up to the table. He attempts to answer the call, only to get responses from the phone itself and then proceeds to jump rope with the telephone, who uses its receiver and wire as a jump rope while the radio Through the Mirror playing music. Mickey begins to dance his way through his house, tap dancing on a top hat wearing a tiny one with a match for a cane with some gloves eventually he gets his butt kicked twice by the glovesplaying cards some of them hit Mickey's butt during the dance Through the Mirror, and eventually the Queen of Hearts card who resembles Greta Garbo. The joker on his bicycle notices and alerts the King of Hearts who uses the joker's bike to get down there and pulls the queen aside before proceeding to fight for his lady in a sword duel with Mickey, who uses both a sewing needle and a button as a makeshift sword after the King of Hearts pushes him and gets his butt stabbed by the needle. Mickey defeats the king by pushing him into an inkwell, where a stamp takes him out and cleans him. Considering this as the last straw, the king then orders for Through the Mirror cards to be called out to get rid of Mickey for good and the radio acts as an alarm to summon the cards like police cars - "Calling all cards! Calling all cards! In response, an army of cards come out from the king's throne and at the same time, a nearby drawer opens as more cards emerge from it. Chaos ensues as Mickey runs from the cards, bumping into a stack of books along the way. He picks up a fountain pen, hides in a basket of yarn, and uses the pen like a machine gun to fire ink at the cards while wearing a thimble like a helmet. The pen eventually runs out of ink, allowing the cards to pig-pile on Mickey, who then escapes in a torn sock. After being spotted, the cards give chase again and throw their pictures at him. Mickey then turns on an electric fan to blow the cards back while the telephone calls the police in panic as Mickey swings from a lamp rope and runs on a globe until he trips and falls into the globe's Bay of Bengal and is thrown out by a figure, who appears to be a small version of Neptuneby impaling Mickey's butt. He then grows back to his Through the Mirror size and escapes back to the real Through the Mirror through the mirror where he reenters his body. Eventually, he is awakened by his alarm clock and it has all been Through the Mirror dream and goes back to sleep after throwing his alarm clock into a drawer. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

  • Motifs of Passage Into Worlds Imaginary and Fantastic
    Motifs of Passage into Worlds Imaginary and Fantastic F. Gordon Greene Sacramento, CA ABSTRACT: In this paper I match phenomena associated with the passage into otherworlds as reported during out-of-body and near-death experiences, with imagery associated with the passage into otherworlds as depicted in classic modern fantasies and fairy tales. Both sources include sensations of consciousness separating from the body, floating and flying, passage through fluidic spaces or dark tunnels toward bright lights, and emergence into super natural worlds inhabited by souls of the deceased and by higher spiritual beings; and both describe comparable psychophysical initiatory factors. I intro duce a metaphysically neutral depth psychology to explain these parallels, examine two metaphysically opposed extensions to this depth psychology, and consider several implications of a transcendental perspective. Introduction The prospect of a fantastic journey leading into realms of super natural wonder has always fired the human imagination and probably always will. Such a journey may involve a voyage to remote islands or continents hidden in uncharted seas, a trek off the edge of the Earth's flat surface, a descent into the gloomy underworld below, an ascent into the starry heavens above, or a passage through a magical portal into dimensions unseen. Whatever the pathway, the possibility of such a fantastic journey speaks irresistibly to some deep facet of human nature, this is a facet possessed of a longing that must be appeased, if not fulfilled, in the realm of human imagination, if not in that of some extra mundane reality. Mr. Greene is a free-lance writer whose principal interests have been parapsychology, religion, and metaphysics.

  • Anido FILM1 30E
    FILM 1/30e No.1 The Exhibition of Mr. Mukuo Takamura Mukuo at his Studio (Photo:T.Namiki) The retrospective exhibition of Mr. Takamura Mukuo, who had passed away 3 year ago, was held at the Museum in Machida. This April under the auspices of his family. He the leading person in background painters of Japanese animation field produced numerous wonderful works. Though they offered free- entrance, it was rich in content. There were more than 100 background paintings drawn by him, from his early works such as "Marco", "Gosch, the Cellist", "The Dagger of Kamui", to his posthumous works like "Sailor Moon". They gave us the full picture of his career as a background designer for 30 years. They were enough to remind almost 600 fans, who visited exhibition at his talent. Mr. Mukuo first helped ANIDO directlywith the article on "Marco" in FILM 1/24, No. 23. The background of "Gosch, the Cellist" most of which were was so great that I can never forget that drawn by him. During its production, I worked as an animator. Even after that, I took a part in advertisement. He helped us a lot, like making a guest appearance when we held screenings, joining the discussion for the animation magazine, drawing background of the pictures for badges and other goods, and so on. It's very sad to say Mr. Mukuo had already passed away. But I believe that we, people in Japanese animation field, will never forget his earnest attitude toward creation. ANIDO is now planning to publish the book of his wonderful works.

  • Alice's Adventures in Disneyland
    © Markus Lång 2006 This review was first published in Lewis Carroll Review, issue 32 (January 2006), pp. 8–12. Alice’s Adventures in Disneyland Alice in Wonderland: The Masterpiece Edition Produced by Walt Disney Adapted from the books of Lewis Carroll Production supervised by Ben Sharpsteen Musical score by Oliver Wallace Directed by Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske and Wilfred Jackson DVD video (2 disks), region 1 Video format: NTSC Audio: English (stereo and mono), French, Spanish Subtitles: English (hard of hearing) Runtime: 75'08" Buena Vista Home Entertainment 2004, $ 29.99 http://www.disneydvd.com/ alt Disney had always been interested in WLewis Carroll’s Alice books. The animat- ed feature Alice in Wonderland (1951) is his chef- d’œuvre in this respect, but he had been mak- ing Alice-entitled silent short films already in the 1920s in which live action is combined with black- and-white animation; this shows how eagerly he always wanted to transcend the inexorable bor- der between reality and fantasy. There is also a Mickey Mouse cartoon from 1936, Thru the Mirror, in which some Carrollian motives appear. These short films show that Disney was not so interested in replicating “exactically” Carroll’s story line but in examining if and how some of his ideas could be applied to animation. From the early 1930s on, the Disney cartoons developed a distinct and marked animation style, partly dictated by the demands of the animation medium: clear- cut, caricature-like characters, evenly coloured areas and black contours. When one has to draw and colour manually 24 images for a second of film, this is the easiest way to do it; and Walt Disney refined the drawing process to an indus- try, even planning his studio buildings in Burbank so that the movie in preparation could proceed as if on a conveyor belt.

    1 Alicia a través del tiempo y el arquetipo John Alberto Espitia Rodriguez Tutora: Sandra Patricia Rendón Restrepo Facultad de Diseño Gráfico Universidad Santo Tomás Bogotá, D.C. 2017 ii Dedicatoria Dedico este proyecto en primera instancia a mi madre, quien desde siempre ha estado conmigo, apoyándome incondicionalmente en todos los momentos de triunfo y tristeza, siendo la parte más importante en mi vida y gracias a ella, he podido sacar fuerzas en los momentos más duros. A mi padre, quien me ha dado todas las herramientas necesarias para llegar a este punto. A mis abuelas, quienes han sido una parte fundamental en mi vida, y me han brindado todo de sí para estar conmigo. Por convertirse en mis maestras, sustentos y segundas madres, y a quienes les debo todo y aún más, por ser uno de los pilares más importantes de mi vida. A mi hermana, que a pesar de las muchas discusiones que pueden llegar a haber entre nosotros, el cariño y admiración que siento por ella es inmenso. Desde el momento en que llegó se ha convertido en una parte necesaria de mí vida, y estoy eternamente agradecido por contar con la compañía de una persona tan sensible, carismática y alegre como lo es mi hermana. Finalmente a todos los compañeros, profesores y amigos, con quienes he podido compartir en esta etapa de mi vida, he aprendido y crecido como persona gracias a todos ustedes y este momento en el que me encuentro no sería lo mismo sin todas las risas, llanto y recuerdos que he podido tener con cada uno de ustedes.

  • American Cinema of the 1930S SCREEN AMERICAN CULTURE / AMERICAN CINEMA DECADES
    American Cinema of the 1930s SCREEN AMERICAN CULTURE / AMERICAN CINEMA DECADES Each volume in the Screen Decades: American Culture/American Cinema series presents a group of original essays analyzing the impact of cultural issues on the cin- ema and the impact of the cinema in American society. Because every chapter explores a spectrum of particularly significant motion pictures and the broad range of historical events in one year, readers will gain a continuing sense of the decade as it came to be depicted on movie screens across the continent. The integration of his- torical and cultural events with the sprawling progression of American cinema illu- minates the pervasive themes and the essential movies that define an era. Our series represents one among many possible ways of confronting the past; we hope that these books will offer a better understanding of the connections between American culture and film history.

  • “Would You Tell Me, Please, Which Way I Ought to Go from Here? - That Depends a Good Deal on Where You Want to Get To
    LICE “Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? - That depends a good deal on where you want to get to. I don't much care where… - Then it doesn't much matter which way you go. So long as I get somewhere. - Oh, you're sure to do that, if only you walk long enough.” Lewis Carroll , Alice's Adventures in Wonderland Cover page: collage of the pipe organ, St-François Church, Lausanne and an illustration by John Tenniel from the 1st edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) ALICE March 2016 PRESENTATION “The debate about knowledge is no longer relevant and intelligence is no longer to be taken into account, so only dreams give Man complete liberty (…) In all families, every morning men, women and children, IF THEY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO, talk about their dreams. We are all subjected to dreaming and to its’ power during our waking state, like a tyrant clothed in mirrors and lightning (…)”1 “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” , why not? For this is what it’s all about. It’s irrelevant that she’s travelling inside a pipe organ this time, Alice is a figure symbolic of dreams and she can go anywhere through each one of us. Is it our deep down desire that we can transgress reality and dive into our imagination to “really” live our dreams and fantasies? It’s in our own imagination that wonderful journeys like Alice through the looking glass take place. But can we really come back? Having jumped into the burrow, can we come out again unscathed? In his stories, Lewis Carroll draws the reader into a universe without limits and he continually encourages artists to loose themselves in this wonderland.

  • Thomas Leitch University of Delaware
    Studia Filmoznawcze 33 Wroc³aw 2012 Thomas Leitch University of Delaware READING LIKE ADULTS, PERFORMING LIKE CHILDREN: TWO WAYS OF EXPERIENCING ADAPTATIONS It is a truth universally acknowledged that in order to experience an adaptation as an adaptation, you have to recognize it as an adaptation, and in order to recognize it as an adaptation, you have to know its source. These are adult skills unavailable to children; we might call them part of the skill set that makes child readers into adult readers. As Linda Hutcheon has put it, “adaptation a s adaptation involves, for its knowing audience, an interpretive doubling, a conceptual fl ipping back and forth between the work we know and the work we are experiencing” (139). But what qualifi es an audience as a knowing, adult audience capable of this fl ipping back and forth? How much do you have to know, and what kinds of things do you have to know about a given adaptation’s source, in order to experience the “repetition with variation” (116) that provides the distinctive pleasures of adaptation? Contrasting two adaptations of Proust, Volker Schlöndorff’s Un Amour de Swann, which is “a primer of what n o t to do when adapting A la recherche,” and Raúl Ruiz’s Le Temps retrouvé, which remains “[t]rue to Proust’s aesthetic,” Melissa Anderson revealingly remarks, “For those who are unfamiliar with Proust’s sprawl- ing novel, Ruiz’s fi lm may seem somewhat impenetrable, since he wastes no time in exposition” (102, 104). Given that Proust devotes six even more sprawling novels to exposition before arriving at Le Temps retrouvé, it would seem captious to require fi lmgoers to have read not only Proust’s fi nal novel but all the earlier portions of A la recherche du temps perdu in order to appreciate Ruiz’s fi lm adaptation as an Studia Filmoznawcze 33, 2012 © for this edition by CNS SSF_33.indbF_33.indb 9 22012-08-10012-08-10 111:41:161:41:16 10 | Thomas Leitch adaptation, or even to be able to follow it as a story.
