I forgot to see this movie before, and I can't remember if I cried when I saw it at the end. Over the years, I have come to understand more and more that there are too many out of control in life. I always suffer for the utilitarian reality, always try my best to keep my childish innocence, and always stubbornly adhere to a small ideal. What I am most afraid of is that these persistence will be overwhelmed by the years. It seems that no matter what you do, you must learn the corresponding rules, so you lose yourself in it. In comparison, the writer in the movie is really lucky, at least his maverick is finally recognized by people, at least he has met the right person.

Finding Neverland quotes

  • [last lines]

    Peter Llewelyn Davies: I can see her.

  • J.M. Barrie: I do apologize for interrupting.

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: Would you close the door, please?

    J.M. Barrie: Certainly.

    [he closes the door]

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: Sylvia has told me you have offered her the services of your household staff.

    J.M. Barrie: Well, not exactly.

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: That won't be necessary.

    J.M. Barrie: I'll leave that to Sylvia, of course.

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: You'll leave that to ME, Mr.Barrie. You see, I'm moving in here from now on.

    J.M. Barrie: You're moving in?

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: I'm going where I'm most needed. And I can certainly see to it that this house is managed without resorting to your charity.

    J.M. Barrie: It isn't charity, Mrs du Maurier. I was only trying to help, as a friend.

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: Have you no idea how much your friendship has already cost my daughter? Or are you really that selfish?

    J.M. Barrie: I beg your pardon?

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: Don't you see what a visit to the summer cottage of a married man does for a widow's future prospects? Sylvia needs to find someone. The boys need a father. And you are destroying any hope this family has of pulling itself together again.

    J.M. Barrie: I have only wanted good things for this family, Mrs du Maurier.

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: I'll look after them. You have your own family to concern yourself with.

    J.M. Barrie: What are you suggesting?

    Mrs. Emma du Maurier: I'm suggesting that you protect what you have, Mr.Barrie. That is percisely what I am doing.
