5. Agree, but
I also liked the movie. Johnny Depp has to be one of the best actors around. There's more to the story, though.

I'm reading a biography of JM Barrie, which includes accounts of how the Davies brothers fared, including Peter. George, I think, died in WW1. Someone else died early. Peter had an appalling life, in large part because whatever he did, the media reported it as Peter Pan this and Peter Pan that. He apparently believed that Barried would leave something to him in his will, but when Barried died in 1937 -- nothing. Peter Davies threw himself under a London train in 1960. All in all, a moving film, tragic reality.
