Barrie spends time with a wealthy widow and her four sons, engaging the boys in fanciful role playing. Barrie's wife and others are suspicious of his intense interest in the widow's family, but Barrie seems genuinely innocent and inspired as he comes up with the ideas for Peter Pan, the play destined to be a children's classic about a boy who never wants to grow up, his fairy, and a pirate who represents cruel adults who fear the passage of time (the ticking clock in the alligator). • a moving and wholesome film about an odd hero of fantasy literature who, like Lewis Carrol, had an apparently healthy and spiritually destined obsession for understanding and entertaining children, dir. Marc Forster, based on play "The Man Who Was Peter Pan" by Allan Knee, stars Johnny Depp, compare with "Dreamchild" (1985) or "The Dreamer of Oz" (1990) - Themes: Creativity, Dreaming, Innocence, Journeying, Myth/Religion, Relationships
