About Invitation from Alice -Welcome to the Cheshire Cat Hotel-
Jack Wilkins is a news writer who prefers to go by his pen name, Ernest Milton. He receives a mysterious invitation to the Cheshire Cat Hotel and takes a week off in order to go check it out. The hotel is a lively if somewhat strange place with curious staff members, and at first Ernest is wary about staying. The hotel manager eventually persuades him, though, offering Ernest free services if he does a favor for another patron. They want him to help break up the engagement of a certain couple, Mary and Charles.
Directed by Oota Tetsunori, Invitation from Alice -Welcome to the Cheshire Cat Hotel- leans on a strong ensemble — Takane Fubuki, Kisaki Miri, Yoka Wao — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1996.
