Finding Neverland...GO NOW!
Hey Guys,It's late, I have an 8:30 a.m. class tomorrow and I've been writing a C.A.R. report for the last four hours, but I just have to say one thing before I go collapse in my bed:
Go see Finding Neverland.
I'm telling you...I went to see it tonight with my mom as a belated birthday present and I absolutely loved it. Warning: it's really sad (like, I was actually heaving with sobs I was crying so much) but so touching and so magical. Yes, it's Peter Pan and we all know the story, but this really isn't about that. Not directly anyway. It's about how J.M Barrie was inspired to write it, and the movie in turn inspires you to stay young at heart forever. Johnny Depp is awesome, as usual, but the hands-down best performance in a movie filled with A-list stars (Depp, Kate Winslet, Julie Christie and Dustan Hoffman) is none other than Peter himself, the young boy who inspired the famous character in Barrie's play. The actor's name is Freddie Highmore and if this kid doesn't get nominated for an Oscar I'm going to Hollywood to kick their asses myself. He's absolutely adorable to look at and has so much talent it's practically dripping from him:
Alright, I'm off to bed, but do yourselves a favour and rush to see this movie. It probably won't be in theatres much longer (we had to go out to SilverCity to see it) but rent it when it comes out...or better yet come over to my house and watch it with me, cuz I'll have bought it the second it hits the shelves.
G'night :)
