Made just 37 years after Lewis Carroll wrote his novel and eight years  after the birth of cinema, the adaptation was directed by Cecil Hepworth  and Percy Stow, and was based on Sir John Tenniel&rsquo;s original  illustrations. In an act that was to echo more than 100 years later in Tim Burton&rsquo;s film,  Hepworth cast his wife as the Red Queen, and he himself appears as the  Frog Footman.
