One of my favorites

Rating: 10/10 (8 August 2005)

As soon as I heard about this movie, I knew that it would be a movie that I would like. It just looked like that rare magical piece of cinema which one watches, and then wants to watch again and again and again. From the moment the movie started, I was transported to another world... the world of "Finding Neverland." Of course, Johnny Depp is my favorite actor of all time, but besides that, all the other actors play believable performances, as if you forget they're Johnny Depp or Kate Winslet (reminiscent of Jamie Foxx's performance as Ray Charles.) Freddie Highmore (who co-starred with Depp in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory") is a promising young star who has much talent... I hope he'll go on to play more great roles. David Magee's script is beautifully crafted, and the cinematography and direction of the film under Marc Forster is beautiful and breath-taking. If you enjoyed this film, which I am sure you will not be disappointed, I recommend "A Dog of Flanders", another movie about creating great works of art.
