Alice's Circus Daze (1927) | Complete Version | Alice Comedies

ALICE'S CIRCUS DAZE is a black-and-white silent short film created and directed by Walt Disney. It features live action footage paired with animated sequences. It stars Lois Hardwick as Alice. It was released on April 18, 1927.
There's two versions of this film out there, so I edited the missing scenes into a high quality version of it.
Alice and Julius The Cat are getting ready for their big performance at the circus while many of the other acts are being showcased. Their act doesn't go exactly to plan.
The Alice Comedies series was created by Walt Disney, Ub Iwerks, and their staff in the 1920s, in which a live action little girl named Alice has adventures in an animated landscape. The shorts were the first work by what ultimately became The Walt Disney Company. Unfortunately, not all of these shorts survived.
How Disney routinely exerted influence on the US copyright law: shorturl.at/nsERZ
This film is in the public domain meaning it has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights. You can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission. Corporations, including The Walt Disney Company, lobbied Congress to get U.S. copyright laws extended by 20 years, twice! Because of that, it allows published works to be under copyright for almost a century and corporations to squeeze every last ounce of profit from them even long after the profitability has past. It keeps people from enjoying art, which is the purpose of art.
