Review of Finding Neverland (2004) by Maymay A — 13 Apr 2010
"How far can your imagination take you?".
When the acclaimed playwright Sir James Matthew Barry was beginning to lose is touch, a family came into his life. It may seem wrong, but Barry loved the widowed Sylvia Llewelyn Davies and her children. He became quite close with the family which is frowned upon by some people in their lives especially of Sylvia's mother and occasionally, Peter.
This film opens the story of how the world-famous classic, Peter Pan, came to life. It was really beautiful and touching. Superb performances from Kate Winslet, Freddie Highmore and Johnny Depp. It was really moving especially for Barry. He just loved. But in the end, he lost his wife, his new-found family and the love of his life.
Sylvia and James were like Peter and Wendy. They were in each other's company for a while, the greatest times of their lives. But, the truth is they're never meant to be together.
