"Thru the Mirror" is a "Mickey Mouse" cartoon short film produced by Walt Disney Productions, released by United Artists in 1936. In this cartoon short, Mickey has a "Through the Looking Glass"-type dream that he travels through his mirror and enter a topsy-turvy world where everything is alive. While there, he engages in a Fred Astaire-type dance number with a pair of gloves and a pack of cards, until the cards chase him out of the bizarre world.

The short was included in the Disney 2004 DVD release of "Alice in Wonderland".

Trivia

The aforementioned Fred Astaire-type dance sequence was then parodied by the Genie during the "Friend Like Me" segment of the movie Aladdin.
