Although it has never been one of my all-time favorite Disney films, I do like the Disney cartoon Alice in Wonderland enough, and I'm actually very fond of Alice. I think she is very beautiful and adorable for a ten-year-old girl. :)
Now I know this may sound strange, but I actually think Alice is very cute in the two scenes in which she prominently cries, particularly the first time. I don't really have a reason why, if any of you want to know, but seeing her cry makes me feel sympathy for her and wish I could give her a hug of comfort!
At the same time, which may be part of my reason, Alice stands out to me quite a bit because she is one of the few Disney protagonists to be a child. Not only that, but she travels alone throughout much of her adventure with no parent, guardian, or any real, true companion. You could say she's a very vulnerable character, due to her being a young girl.
During her time in Wonderland, the talking doorknob and Cheshire Cat are the only ones who show her any kindness and sympathy, even though the latter gets her in trouble with the Queen of Hearts later. And even though the queen initially takes a liking to Alice, it isn't long before she gets on the queen's bad side and ends up being framed for a crime against her. The film's climax in which all the characters in Wonderland chase after Alice, again, show her vulnerability due to her being a little girl up against so many characters. It's pretty much considered a relief that Alice's adventures in Wonderland all turn out to be just a dream.
