I had forgotten just how beautiful this movie really is. Johnny Depp, who usually plays such phenomenally absurd characters here once again succeeds in his slightly surreal portrayal of J.M. Barry. The film follows Barry as he explores the real story behind the fantasy which is Peter Pan. Touching throughout and desperately sad, yet the magic is uplifting. A contradiction in terms, I know. But watch it and I'm sure you'll agree. i love Johnny Deppso much lol mate want to see it again
