Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThough the film was a modest success, Walt Disney himself was dissatisfied with the finished product, feeling that the character of Peter Pan was cold and unlikable. However, experts on J.M. Barrie praise this as a success, as they insist that Pan was originally written to be a heartless sociopath.
- GoofsShortly after Wendy leaves the hands of the famous clock tower, her face disappears. All that is showing is a blank pink area (play the DVD in slow-motion).
- Crazy creditsA message appears during the credits: "Walt Disney Productions is grateful to the Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street, London, to which Sir J.M. Barrie gave his copyright of Peter Pan."
- Alternate versionsIn the 1990 home video release, instead of the original RKO logo, the film opens with the entire Walt Disney Pictures logo, with the Walt Disney Pictures logo music replacing the film's RKO logo fanfare. In the 1998/1999/2002 home video releases, and 2007 Platinum Edition DVD release, the RKO logo and its fanfare are restored, but they occur after the Walt Disney Pictures logo opens the film. In the 2013 Diamond Edition and 2018 Signature Collection releases, the Walt Disney Pictures logo isn't used at all and just begins with the RKO logo.

Featured review
This is one of the most charming, magical movies ever! It is an adaptation of James Barrie's Peter Pan, the story of the boy who wouldn't grow up. It starts in London, where a very proper Wendy has one night left in the nursery before she most grow up. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Darling are out for an office party, and the nursemaid, a dog named Nana is tied up outside for the night. Peter Pan comes and takes Wendy and her brothers John and Micheal away to Neverland, "the second star to the right and staight on til morning", with the help of the pixie dust from the jealous little pixie Tinkerbell. A sprinkling of the dust makes them fly, just like Peter does. Once in Neverland they encounter mermaids, Indians, and the foppish, but evil villian Captain Hook. This beloved story will bring you back to your childhood and this delightful score will be hard to forget! It is sure to have you singing along! This is a wonderful movie that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike!
