It's just after the turn of the 20th century in England, and playwright James M. Barrie is coming off of a flop. This is the setting of Finding Neverland. Even if the name J.M. Barrie doesn't ring a bell, then the title should clue you in that this is a film about the author of Peter Pan, the immortal story of a boy who has never grown up. A landmark in English literature, the tale has touched generations of children in book form, on stage, and through cinema, most memorably in Walt Disney's 1953 animated film.
Finding Neverland is not yet another retelling of this tale, but rather an inspiring drama about the story behind the story. When the film opens, Barrie (masterfully played by Johnny Depp) nervously awaits the audience's reaction to his new play. The writer seems to be as tough a critic of himself as anyone else, and so he responds with restrained disappointment and not surprise when his latest work meets with a cool reception.

Theatre producer Charles Frohman (Dustin Hoffman) expects a follow-up hit from Barrie to undo the loss-sustaining flop, but Barrie doesn't particularly have any ideas. Enter Sylvia Llewelyn Davies (Kate Winslet), a pretty young widow with four children. While at the park one bright day, Barrie encounters the Davies family and entertains them with his enormous dog Rufus. This is the start of a beautiful friendship, in which the child inside Barrie stimulates the imagination of the Davies boys. In turn, the boys likewise inspire Barrie. The adventures they share together (whether envisioning themselves as pirates aboard a ship or simply playing cowboys and Indians) seem to do both the author and the Davies family a lot of good. What a spectacular film!! > Great for the whole family!
