Doorknob: Difference between revisions

The Doorknob first appeared in Walt Disney's 1951 film ''Alice in Wonderland'' as a minor character. After falling down the rabbit hole, Alice meets the Doorknob, who acts as the doorway to Wonderland. When Alice asks to pass, the Doorknob instructs her to drink a bottle of liquid to shrink herself in order to pass. Unfortunately, she leaves the key that was supposed to open the Doorknob on a table. He then tells her to eat a sweet to make herself large again, but this backfires and makes her into a giant. When Alice drinks the shrinking potion once more, she becomes trapped inside in the now-empty bottle and travels into Wonderland through the Doorknob's mouth. At the climax of the movie, the Doorknob encounters Alice when she is trying to escape from the Queen of Hearts, but he is locked. However, he informs her that she is already outside and was just asleep.
