Peter Pan: Difference between revisions

Peter Pan originated from J. M. Barrie's 1904 play and 1911 novel ''{{w|Peter and Wendy}}''. Barrie's play was the inspiration for the 1953 Disney movie ''{{w|Peter Pan (1953 film)|Peter Pan}}'' in which Peter was the title character. In the film, Peter was a young boy who lived in a land called Neverland, in which noone grew up. Peter travelled to a home in London to retrieve his shadow which he had lost the night before while listening to the stories a young girl was telling her brothers. While there he met the three Darling children, Wendy, Michael and John, who he took back to Neverland with him. Peter showed the children the wonders of his home, while also being relentlessly pursued by the vengeous Captain Hook. Peter's hideout was eventually revealed by his jealous pixie friend Tinker Bell and Peter was almost killed by a bomb that was planted by Hook. He managed to survive only through the aid of the now remorseful Tinker Bell and he then went on to rescue the Darling children and his other friends who had been captured by the evil pirate captain and his crew. At the end of the film, Peter returned the Darling children to their home and returned to his home in Neverland.
