Peter Pan: Happy but not happy

Last week, I accidentally saw "Peter Pan" on CCTV-6. The story of Peter Pan has been read for a long time, and this is the first time I see the movie.

Amazed by the little boy who played Peter Pan...the sharp chin, thin lips, the corners of the mouth that curled up when he smiled and a faint smile. Peter Pan is like this, a boy who has grown up for many years and never grows up, is sweet and sad, can't bear the helplessness and boredom of the adult world, but in Neverland, where time is stagnant, he still has to taste loneliness and loneliness. The time of the body may stop, but the time of the mind will not stop.

Happy but not happy, this is Neverland in my eyes. Or because that's a place only a flying mind can reach. A heart full of happy dreams will fly. Wendy's younger brother was attacked by Captain Hawk on the way to Neverland, fell into the clouds at a loss, and shouted: I can't think of happy things!

Perhaps because of this, it is impossible for me to really understand the story, nor to imagine how this classic fairy tale is interpreted in the hearts of generations of Westerners.

But this little actor who plays Peter, Jeremy Sumpter, is truly amazing. I decided to use him as a desktop instead.
