Finding Neverland
Plot
-Tells the story of J.M. Barrie, the well-known author of the famous children's story Peter Pan. Took experiences from knowing a family with kids who had no father.
-In 1903 London, J.M. Barrie is sitting in the park one day after one of his recent plays failed. He notices a woman and her 4 kids playing in the park. He soon befriends this woman and their imaginations give him inspiration for a new play. Without realizing it, he is befriending their mother, Sylvia, much to the disappointment of his wife Mary, with whom he spends so little time, which explains their separate bedroom situation at home. Also, he has to contend with Sylvia's mother and high London society, which constantly gossips about why he is attracted to this lone woman and her four kids.

I'm a girl born in the wrong decade. I belong in the 1960s or the 1970s in my opinion. I bleed tie dye, my theme music is anything 1960s rock or 1970s rock or metal. I'm a hippie through and through. But also a hippie who loves old metal music. I believe that violence never solves anything, so why resort to it to solve problems? With all the wars the world has seen, there should be a clue somewhere in there!
