Dreamchild

In "Dreamchild," Coral Browne plays 80-year-old Alice Hargreaves, a woman who travels to New York City from England to receive an honorary degree from Columbia University, celebrating the centenary of author Lewis Carroll's birth. As she reflects on her childhood friendship with Carroll, now deceased as Reverend Charles Dodgson, Alice is forced to confront the complexity of their bond and its lasting impact on her life. With a blend of fantasy and reality, the film takes Alice on a journey through her memories, from Victorian-era Oxford to Depression-era New York, as she navigates the modern world of tabloid journalism and commercial exploitation.
