Comments

From Cristian Redferne : Pretty good entry in the Alice comedies, though she is not onscreen a whole lot. Julius is the main protagonist here, and boy does he look like Felix the cat. It'd be nice to have a time machine and go watch this with a 1926 audience.

I have seen "Alice's Balloon Race" and would like to
