Alice in Wonderland is a 1915 silent film adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic novel, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, directed and written by W.W. Young and starring Viola Savoy as Alice.

This film version is notable for depicting the 'Father William' poem in its entirety. it is ironic that a silent film would depict a poem while none of the later talking versions attempted it. During the telling of poem, there is a startling image of Tenniel's illustration of Father William doing his back-somersault at the front door.
