Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAlice's name is a nod to Alice in Wonderland, in which the main character shrinks down and goes into a tea pot.
- GoofsWhen John and Alice are in the library, Alice rips a page out of the "Magical Objects and Potions" book while John is distracted. He then begins to read about some dangers of the teapot on the lower right edge of the right-side page. Turning the page he cannot keep reading because the next page had been removed. In reality, the continuation would have been on the upper-left back side of the page he turned, which was clearly full of text.
- Crazy creditsWhen the opening credits are shown, it is against a background of ancient historical illustrations, each of which has at least one pot of some sort depicted. Some have several pots, and many of those also have the six-pointed star that is on the brass teapot featured in the film.

Featured review
how greedy will they get?
Alice and john don't have much money. But they are reasonably happy. Their luck seems to go from bad to worse. Alice can't seem to find and job, and john just lost his. But something strange happens when they steal something from an old lady. It has powers. When they hurt themselves, good things happen to them. How far will they go to pay the bills? Or even have more money than they need? And who keeps showing up looking to reclaim what they stole? It's all fun and mysterious. At some point, they will need to figure out what's really important, or they will destroy their marriage and their lives! Keep an eye out for kenneth, from 30 rock. It's a bit odd, but very well done. Fun to watch. This started out as a short film in 2007, written as a full length feature for 2012. Directed by ramaa mosley.
