"FINDING NEVERLAND"
—— Unlock your imagination.
1903, the play, a failure. He lost the inspiration.
A huge dog ~ Nana ! The park.
4 boys. 3 of them do role-play themselves as prince and prisoner, except one —— Peter, the third. Sensitive, adult, the special one.
"Just a dog? JUST!" It seems there needs some imagination. "It's a GREAT bear."
Africa, Indian，gold, stream …the backyard —— a "Home Country".
"It won't going to work if no one believe him." The kite finally flew, so did Peter's prisoner—— the "talky whale" he tied in his heart. "The means means!" A piece of wood IS a golden sword.
4 boys, no income ~ even her mother was critical to this. "He has been in trouble. Once I was alone with grandma, I know what that'll be." Captain Hook just came out~
High social class, more social relationship, that seem to be what Mary wants. Ordinary, realistic, what she seems to be. It's wasting time —— to play with children. What tears them? He is a child himself. Disliking going to bed? That's all right, especially when"They always wake up a day older". He enjoys the pleasure time. When he's within them, the sun shines all the time, while "home" only means a dark, empty house to all. But he loves his wife. He thought he could keep the balance, the life and the work, the real and the imaginary. In fact, he did it, but not to others' mind. "How could someone put so evil thoughts on children?""Once you got a little happiness, the destroyer's coming." The real world is so complicated even though one insists on paying no attention to that truth. "How I hope I could been there, even once. But you even never tell me about it —— Neverland." When they got married, she was also full of magic thoughts."There is no such a place." He planned to show her the secret island, but after moving into this house, she changed, somehow. And he falls into the real world, every time in front of her. "Yes, it exists!" She was hurt, left him with his Neverland~
Yes. He keeps the land in his heart, for the "Little James" has gone there, when he walked to his mother in the clothes of David, the dead brother. That's why he paid more attentions to Peter —— he saw his past in him. "He is trying to grow up too fast, as if the grown-up were less easily hurt than the child."

While Peter began to bury the sad piece, another was coming. "She told us Papa would take us for a fishing next week, but he never woke up the next morning. All is a lie~""It's not a lie. It's your mother's hope." Never be afraid to show honesty in front of them. "I don't know.", instead of making up.
"She does just not want her be hurt." Every mom puts her child deep in the heart. "A boy's gone. In last 30 seconds, you have grown up." So does a child put his mom.
"Critics made the play important. What's the word?" —— PLAY! Such a nice investor. "A fortune is unfortunate I can afford the loss of the fortune." By selling out his furniture. "A boy never grow up, a girl fly everywhere, pirates, Indian, …" It's absolutely not a classical play. People dressed in formal sit here for seeing a play informal. 25 seats kept, orphans. "An orphan dressed well" ~ Children laughed, from the very beginning. Laughters bursted, many times, all the audiences. It's not a classical thing ,indeed!"Believe long enough, firm enough —— ting ~ coming true!"
"He was really just a boy himself, to the end." The old couple found what they were. People found the never-grow-up boy. "I'm not Peter Pan, he is."A man named "Peter Pan".
"When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies." A secret —— THE play for her, very special. "Every time a child says 'I don't believe in fairies' there is a little fairy somewhere that falls down dead." The first applause came from grandma, which is said after the movie's on —— unplanned. So the astonishment on those boys' faces at that moment was real.

The promise has been kept. Here comes the place promised: fairies, Indians, evergreens, happinesses … at the last moment, she get the "FOREVER".
"How long will your stay be? What are you going to pay?" If just some time, please keep them alone. What's the old lady protecting her family for, is not a "TEMPORARY", either. He stays. "You need them." As Mary said in the opening show which she never missed. Not only for creating such a great play.

－Why she has to die?
－I don't know. … She has gone to Neverland. She stays forever. She stays in every page of your imagination. You can see her in Neverland anytime you like.
－How?
－By believing, Peter. JUST BELIEVE.

“《寻找梦幻岛》获美国国家评论协会最佳影片奖”——我是这样知道这部片子的，在一本杂志上。又一部关于Peter Pan的，于是就惦记上了，而且直觉告诉自己肯定好过去年那"Peter Pan"。据说，正是因为哥伦比亚公司的“胁迫”，Miramax Films才比计划晚了一年公映这部有着强大明星阵容的片子。
Johnny Depp .... Sir James Matthew Barrie
（说实话我真没看出来这个“大孩子”就是那名个性极了的海盗～）
Kate Winslet .... Sylvia Llewelyn Davies
Julie Christie .... Mrs. Emma du Maurier
Radha Mitchell .... Mary Ansell Barrie
Dustin Hoffman .... Charles Frohman
（片头看到他的名字，片子到一大半了才恍悟那个剧院投资者就是他。这不是他第一次演这个题材了。记得有部电影是说长大了的小飞侠的，罗宾·威廉姆斯是Peter Pan，他是Hook。是了，那片子就叫"HOOK"，相关资料搜到了。
Dustin Hoffman played the title role in Hook (1991), based on the Peter Pan book by 'J.M.Barrie'

Dustin Hoffman .... Capt. James S. Hook
Robin Williams .... Peter Banning/Peter Pan
Julia Roberts .... Tinkerbell ）
Freddie Highmore .... Peter Llewelyn Davies
Joe Prospero .... Jack Llewelyn Davies
Nick Roud .... George Llewelyn Davies
Luke Spill .... Michael Llewelyn Davies
（一些有意思的，关于这四个男孩的家庭：
There were actually five Davies children. The fifth one was born while Barrie was writing the play. Because of this he was not included in the play or in this film. His daughter does appear in the film though. She is the woman in the scene that takes place after the first showing of Peter Pan. She is the one who says something like, "You're Peter Pan?" Her name is Laura Duguid, the daughter of Nicholas (Nico) Llewelyn Davies. ——记得留意一下哦～我是回想起来了的。^_^
真实的戴维斯家庭是这样的，那么真实的Peter呢？）
Ian Hart .... Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Kelly Macdonald .... Peter Pan
（影片中的舞台剧里，Tinkerbell只是一束光，而Peter和最小的孩子都是由女生演的。As in the movie, it has been a tradition for a girl to play Peter Pan in stage productions.）
一种探寻，一次发现，一份坚持——这部带有传记色彩的影片体现了这些。“情”，也有：亲情、友情、爱情。尤其是那份不同于惯常想象的“纯洁感情”似乎因那种东方式的“不明不白”而得到了更多的嘉许。没有在此方面“流俗”，整部片子显得紧凑和谐。而主题，实在感觉很多都可以算。
"To die is to be an awfully great adventure." Wendy flew away～
又一次“稀里哗啦”～就在此前不到2小时的时间里，我才“稀里哗啦”过来着——在“放牛班”的合唱声中，我看到和风轻托着的一片羽毛，在阳光中，过草地，过湖泊，过森林，上上下下，飘着，转着，悠悠的——原来这世界，竟从来是有那么多的“纯净”在～
