Finding Neverland

00:29:55,883 --> 00:29:58,425 And I would be extremely honored 425 00:29:58,467 --> 00:30:02,925 if you would allow me the use of your name for one of the characters. 426 00:30:02,967 --> 00:30:05,758 I don't know what to say. 427 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,925 Say yes. 428 00:30:09,467 --> 00:30:10,508 Good man. 429 00:30:10,592 --> 00:30:12,675 Porthos! That's mine. Let go. 430 00:30:12,758 --> 00:30:15,675 [Michael] I won't go to bed. I won't, I won't. 431 00:30:15,758 --> 00:30:20,633 You should have been in bed half an hour ago, young man. 432 00:30:21,092 --> 00:30:23,675 I'm afraid I've grown hopelessly lax in my discipline. 433 00:30:23,758 --> 00:30:27,217 Nonsense. Young boys should never be sent to bed. 434 00:30:27,300 --> 00:30:30,383 They always wake up a day older. 435 00:30:30,425 --> 00:30:34,425 And then, before you know it, they're grown. 436 00:30:34,467 --> 00:30:36,508 Their father would have been horrified. 437 00:30:36,592 --> 00:30:38,758 Of course, he never would have allowed a dog in the house either. 438 00:30:39,008 --> 00:30:41,550 He'd have tied him up in the yard. 439 00:30:41,592 --> 00:30:45,592 Right! Last one in bed's a hairy toad. 440 00:31:35,592 --> 00:31:38,758 You mean a lot to my boys, you know. 441 00:31:39,925 --> 00:31:42,758 Especially Peter. 442 00:31:43,883 --> 00:31:47,925 It seems to me that Peter's trying to grow up too fast. 443 00:31:49,508 --> 00:31:55,133 I imagine he thinks that grown-ups don't hurt as deeply as children do when they... 444 00:31:55,258 --> 00:31:57,842 when they lose someone. 445 00:32:00,592 --> 00:32:05,592 I lost my elder brother, David, when I was just Peter's age. 446 00:32:05,633 --> 00:32:08,675 And it nearly destroyed my mother. 447 00:32:08,758 --> 00:32:11,758 James, I'm so sorry. 448 00:32:12,758 --> 00:32:16,675 Your poor mother. I can't imagine losing a child. 449 00:32:16,758 --> 00:32:18,842 Aye. 450 00:32:20,258 --> 00:32:22,592 She didn't get out of bed for months. 451 00:32:23,092 --> 00:32:25,508 She wouldn't eat. 452 00:32:25,592 --> 00:32:28,800 I tried everything to make her happy, but... 453 00:32:29,842 --> 00:32:32,258 she only wanted David. 454 00:32:32,300 --> 00:32:33,925 So... 455 00:32:34,008 --> 00:32:36,133 one day... 456 00:32:37,175 --> 00:32:40,258 I dressed myself in David's clothing 457 00:32:42,508 --> 00:32:45,092 and I went to her. 458 00:32:45,133 --> 00:32:48,342 You must have frightened her to death. 459 00:32:48,425 --> 00:32:54,175 I think it was the first time she ever actually... looked at me. 460 00:32:58,717 --> 00:33:01,800 And that was the end of the boy James. 461 00:33:04,133 --> 00:33:07,050 I used to say to myself he'd gone to Neverland. 462 00:33:07,092 --> 00:33:09,217 Where? 463 00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:12,925 Neverland. It's a wonderful place. 464 00:33:22,633 --> 00:33:26,008 I've not spoken about this before to anyone. 465 00:33:27,050 --> 00:33:28,925 Ever. 466 00:33:38,550 --> 00:33:42,508 What's it like... Neverland? 467 00:33:45,008 --> 00:33:47,925 One day I'll take you there. 468 00:33:49,717 --> 00:33:51,425 [Charles] Wait a minute, James. He's a fairy? 469 00:33:51,467 --> 00:33:55,175 Er, no. He's the irrepressible spirit of youth. Tinker Bell is the fairy. 470 00:33:55,258 --> 00:33:58,550 - Tinker Bell is a woman? - She's not a woman. She's a fairy. 471 00:33:58,592 --> 00:34:01,592 He is a boy who stays young forever. 472 00:34:01,675 --> 00:34:04,008 James, how does anyone stay young forever? It doesn't work. 473 00:34:04,258 --> 00:34:06,925 He just believes, Charles. He imagines life the way he wants it to be, 474 00:34:07,008 --> 00:34:12,133 and he believes in it long enough and hard enough that it all appears before him, see? 475 00:34:12,217 --> 00:34:14,925 James, I'm your friend. You're coming off a flop. 476 00:34:14,967 --> 00:34:19,342 - You have a man who is a fairy. - No, a boy who has a fairy. 477 00:34:19,425 --> 00:34:21,300 And this girl calls herself Tinker. 478 00:34:21,383 --> 00:34:25,383 And you have a pirate ship on stage surrounded by tons and tons of water. 479 00:34:25,425 --> 00:34:27,550 - That's a lot of water. - It's a lot of water. 480 00:34:27,592 --> 00:34:31,425 - Yes, and that's a lot of money. - It is, but we can fake the water. 481 00:34:31,467 --> 00:34:34,258 Oh, well, if we can fake the water then I'm sure your play will be a hit. 482 00:34:34,508 --> 00:34:37,883 You know what I think I'll do? I think I'll imagine life the way I want it to be... 483 00:34:37,925 --> 00:34:38,800 Long enough and hard enough? 484 00:34:38,925 --> 00:34:43,300 Yes, and then the money for the play will appear magically before me. 485 00:34:43,383 --> 00:34:45,133 - That's right.
