Now this was a beautiful movie!
I'm not sure I can even say anything bad about this movie. Only, perhaps, that there were parts that were entirely predictable. For example, when Kate Winslett's character coughed for the first time. "She's dead," we all said.
Johnny Depp is an acting genius! And the older I get, the more fascinated I become with Peter Pan. Weird, eh?
Finding Neverland is a great movie on all counts. The acting is good, the story is good, and it is totally clean. There is absolutely nothing objectionable in this movie. Some might say that Barrie was having an affair with Winslett's character, but that is not quite true. I don't think he ever even touched her. Did he lover yer? Yes, I think so...but he remained faithful, although distant, to his unfaithful wife.
I recommend this film to anyone who loves the story of the might Pan and is interested in how the story came about. One of the best lines comes close to the end, when, after the premier of his new play, Peter Pan, a patron looks at the young boy Peter, who is the namesake for the play and says "You're Peter Pan." To which the young boy replies (pointing to J.M. Barrie), "No, he's Peter Pan!"
'Nuff said.
On another subject...HOLY CRAP!!
I haven't seen the movie, yet, but I took this quiz. HOLY CRAP!!! I can't be HIM?!?!?!!!
