Finding Neverland covers a short period of the life of writer Sir James Matthew Barrie and the creative process that led him to write Peter Pan.
I must admit that I was never a fan of Peter Pan but this movie gave me a whole new perspective.
Seeing how the people and events around the author inspired the play (specially the Davies family), and how in turn the play affected them was heartwarming.
The author believed that one can overcome hardships, sickness and death through imagination; and he wanted to share that with the people he cared about.
Great performances by Depp, Winslet, Hoffman and the actors who played the Davies children specially Freddie Highmore.
