Magical tale of a playwright who has 'never grown up'

Rating: 10/10 (29 November 2004)

An inspiring and enchanting tale of playwright JM Barrie's
inspiration for his play, Peter Pan.
Excellent performances throughout - particularly Depp and
Winslet, although the supporting cast are worthy of the film.
This is a story that wraps you up for its 100 minutes or so and will
transport you to the England of 1904 where it is set and onwards
to Neverland itself.
You will be mesmerised by the story and feel for the characters -
be prepared for one or two tears also as reality is not Neverland.
A fitting tribute for the centenary of Peter Pan - better than the
telegram even.
Surely it will merit awards from both of the academies.
