I Do Believe In Fairies I Do I Do


I found an old DVD of the Peter Pan movie in my room last night. I was thinking that I needed a little doze of fairytale for the day so I watched it. The first time I saw the movie I thought: Peter Pan is cute (LOL). I think I was in high school that time. I haven't seen the movie after that, but I really loved it because of the boy who played Pan, Jeremy Sumpter.


Anyway, I was alone and bored. I watched the movie, studying it for some inspiration for my novel and I was like WOW. The story was really beautiful. I've never paid attention to it because I was too fixated on Jeremy. I still think he was cute in the movie and he played the role well. I also liked the girl who played Wendy, Rachel Hurd-Wood. She had a very lovely face.


Peter and Wendy's love story in the movie was remarkable. I actually felt heartbroken in the end. It was like Romeo and Juliet, except what kept them apart was their world and not their families. The romance was subtle but made an incredible impact on me.


I sort of wished it ended differently--that Wendy would choose to stay with Peter, but the fairytale didn't end that way. I guess the sad ending made it beautiful, but it got me hanging. I wanted to know what happens next and what Peter decided to do as Wendy continued to grow up.

I knew there were other movies that showed Peter ending up with Wendy's descendant but I think the Peter-Wendy tandem is much better. This movie made me see this fairytale in a new angle and I've considered it my favorite. I love it so much that I think it's better than Twilight.

I think I'll watch it again. I can't get enough of it. The only thing that I didn't like about it is that every time it'll end, it ends up breaking my heart.

I know exactly what you mean. I cried when i saw this movie when i got a little older.
The romance the friendship.
" this is all just pretend" peter and wendy talking about their feelings as if it were just some game.
MY heart strings were really tugged.
Wendys open heart to peter, and peter so afraid of change he cant embrase Wendys warmth.
not even her friendship until they depart and go separate ways at the end of the film.
