Find Neverland

The screenwriter played by Depp is actually a child at heart, and he often lives in his own fantasy world.
A failed play, in his eyes, sees a gray theater where it is raining;
a big dog, in his eyes, is a bear dancing with him in the circus;
he wears feathers Hats, painted in oil, are Indians;
playing with children in the jungle is like a pirate
in a storm; jumping on the bed with children who refuse to sleep, he fantasizes about flying out of the window and soaring into the night sky.

His world is dreamy and beautiful. He loves children in his own way and loves their mothers.
His world is not understood by his wife, they respect each other like guests, but they drift away.
Neverland is his ideal country, a paradise in his imagination.
Although it is only a scene, he finally let his beloved woman see Neverland, elves, fairies, forests, sea...
And his wife, chose to leave, As Depp said "without this place," she'll never see it again.

It's a pity that all wild imaginations can't match the helplessness of reality.
Depp back then felt like a helpless big boy.
He loved all this with the most gentle and kind-hearted strength, but he was still sad and sad.
The death of the child's mother is such a cruel reality.
It suddenly made me think that he was living in his own fantasy world to escape reality.
He pretended to be the captain, pretended to be an Indian, even pretended to be the children's father.

He played with the children, led them to play in their imaginations, taught them to "believe"
and he just said lightly to these, "It was they who condoned my willfulness"


PS.
Such a great film , why only 7.7 points, very puzzled.
It turns out that Depp has already played the captain in this film.
It is rare to see Depp's warm and sunny appearance.
