"finding neverland" review

today I watched a movie called "finding neverland." in this movie, Johnny depp plays the role of the writer j.m.barrie, the creator of the "peter pan" myth. Kate winslett co-stars as Sylvia L. Davies, a woman that Mr. barrie befriends who is raising five young, hyperactive, grieving boys while dealing with a pushy, over protective mother. Ms. Davies is also suffering from a developing illness while grieving the loss of her departed husband. depp yet again delivers an outstanding performance, even going to such lengths as to develop a Scottish accent. m(r)s. winslett also gives a pleasant performance. Both performers bring a certain realness to this movie which is rare to find in most true stories. The special effects used in this movie are pleasingly effective. They are used just enough to let the viewer see into the imagination of Mr. barrie, but not enough to turn this wonderful true story into a cheesy fantasy. I would recommend this movie to any Johnny depp fan or to anybody who would like to see what it takes to be a creative writer!
