My screenplay. Alice in Wonderland
Int. Dark forest. Night.
Alice in her blue dress walks
watchfulness. She hears unclear and mystery sounds. Cheshire cat appears
suddenly, only his head is visible.
Alice
Oh, finally I have met someone!
Where I am? Can you explain me? I know that I have got in a very strange place.
Alice looks in Cheshire’s big green eyes. She is a little
nervous.
Cheshire
What do you mean by that?
Cheshire smiles, his body
appears.
Alice
I want to know where I am!
Alice raises her voice. It
sounds persistently.
Cheshire
Is it so important?
Cheshire smiles wider.
Alice
Of course! How can I feel safe
when I don’t know where I am!
She shook her blonde curls.
Cheshire
More important than place is
you… Who are you?
Cheshire flips in the air.
Alice
What do you mean? I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, because
I'm not myself, you see.
Alice becomes confused.
Cheshire
Keep your temper…
Cheshire begins slowly disappear.
Alice
Wait! Is that all?
Cheshire disappears. Alice
hears his voice and looks up. He is on the tree.
Cheshire
One more… It is Wonderland,
silly. And… we are all mad here.
A query letter for the film
Dear mister L.
I have recently
completed my screenplay. I talk about Alice in Wonderland. The new screenplay is
much better, because I completed professional courses of screenwriting, and I traveled a lot. So… I have much inspiration and many ideas about
landscapes and general views of locations.
I would like to ask if
you would consider reading my latest work. It is an interesting story of a
nineteen-year-old Alice. The girl from the tale became mature and she faces
many obstacles of an adult life. There are many great scenes, moreover I included the battle scene and the spectacular
ending. I also accurately worked with all the characters.
If you are interested
in reading my screenplay, please contact me at the address at the top of the
page.
Yours sincerely,
Aliona Ch

It is a true
story about a dog. Hachiko was an Akita dog born on a farm near the city
of Ōdate, Akita Prefecture who is remembered for his remarkable loyalty to his
owner which continued for many years after his owner's death. 1924, Hidesaburō
Ueno, a professor in the agriculture department at the University of Tokyo,
took in Hachikō, a golden brown Akita, as a pet. During his owner's life,
Hachikō greeted him at the end of each day at the nearby Shibuya Station. The
pair continued their daily routine until May 1925, when Professor Ueno did not
return. The professor had suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and died, never
returning to the train station where Hachikō was waiting. Each day for the next
nine years, nine months and fifteen days, Hachikō awaited Ueno's return,
appearing precisely when the train was due at the station.
Hachikō
attracted the attention of other commuters. Many of the people who frequented
the Shibuya train station had seen Hachikō and Professor Ueno together each day.
Initial reactions from the people, especially from those working at the
station, were not necessarily friendly. However, after the first appearance of
the article about him on October 4, 1932 in Asahi Shimbun, people started to
bring Hachikō treats and food to nourish him during his wait. Hachikō died on March 8, 1935, and was found
on a street in Shibuya. In March 2011, scientists settled the cause of death of
Hachikō: the dog had terminal cancer and a filaria infection.
April 1934, a
bronze statue in his likeness was erected at Shibuya, and Hachikō himself was
present at its unveiling. The statue was recycled for the war effort during
World War II. In 1948 The Society for Recreating the Hachikō Statue
commissioned Takeshi Ando, son of the original artist, to make a second statue.
When the new statue appeared, a dedication ceremony occurred. The new statue,
which was erected in August 1948, still stands and is a popular meeting spot.
The station entrance near this statue is named "Hachikō-guchi", meaning
"The Hachikō Entrance/Exit", and is one of Shibuya Station's five
exits. Hachikō was the subject of the 1987 movie Hachi-kō (Hachikō Monogatari) -(literally "The Tale of Hachiko"),directed
by Seijirō Kōyama, which told the story of his life from his birth up until his
death and imagined spiritual reunion with his master. Considered a blockbuster
success, the film was the last big hit for Japanese film studio Shochiku Kinema
Kenkyû-jo.
Hachi: A Dog's
Tale, released in August 2009, is an American movie starring actor Richard
Gere, directed by Lasse Hallström, about Hachikō and his relationship with an
American professor & his family following the same basic story. The movie
was filmed in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, primarily in and around the Woonsocket
Depot Square area and also featured Joan Allen and Jason Alexander.
It is a true-
life story about the legendary loyal dog, Hachiko, forever reunited with
his human.
