Finding Neverland (Programmes)

[rebness]

Waah. Watched a documentary today about Peter Pan and various JM Barrie goodness. Rupert Grint of Weasley fame narrated as Peter, though he strangely called Barrie "Inkyman" all the time.

There were photographs of the Llewelyn family; Sylvia, Peter et al. Sylvia was luminous and beautiful. There was a dissection of the storyline with Rupert's chirpy cockerney tones and such. It was very, very sad and very beautiful. Barrie came across as a genuinely caring man, what with donating his copyright and subsequent profits to Great Ormond Street Childrens' Hospital; his care of the boys after Sylvia's death, etc...

Oh, and Johnny Depp was in it, too. Not that... you know... that was my original reason for watching. Nosirree.

Of course not.

Of course Johnny Depp wasn't the sole reason for watching it. You have a deep appreciation for children's literature and their creations and your interest was entirely academically motivated. There were know lustful and depraved thoughts about Mr Depp's body at all were there? We all believe you, millions wouldn't. *g*

Of course you watched it for it's literature value! Just like I sat and writhed through Phantom of the Opera for the 80's throwback music and not because one side of the phantoms face was lovely..
