VHS Movie Reviews of Peter Pan (30th Anniversary Collector's Edition) [VHS]
Movie Review: The Best Peter Pan Ever - Keep Our Culture Alive
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was 5 years old, my mother took me to Broadway to see Mary Martin in Peter Pan. We even had box seats. From that day on Mary Martin was my idol. I was delighted when she redid the show for tv with Cyril Richard. I own the VHS tape and would love to have a dvd of it, but with the prices being charged by scalping third party sellers on Amazon, it is cheaper to buy the vhs to dvd conversion equipment and software that are now being sold by Roxio and Nero (Ulead). I never liked the Disney cartoon of this story and have hated any attempt at redoing it on stage (or tv) since Mary Martin. Maybe I instinctively felt, even at a young age, that it was great that a woman was playing a boy's part - and "boy" could she play it. There is actually great pathos when everyone leaves him, and I remember when I was young clapping as hard as I could to keep tinkerbell alive. Disney has co-opted tinkerbell (you should see all the Disney products with her on it), but has done little to promote Peter himself. Years later, I showed it to my 2 year old god-daughter and she loved it, but I think she has forgotten it by now (with Justin Bieber, etc. taking over her musical tastes). However, I have noticed that the movies and books I shared with her as a young child remain in some way in her subconscious, and I hope that she will pass them on to her children. The schools are now teach terribly politically correct stories and seem to have forgotten that part of their job is to keep our own culture going. I don't mind new additions, but not at the expense of the old standards. However, beware, the age of the classics we enjoyed as children is now much younger for today's children. Even Elmo (who is 3 and meant for 3 year olds) is now relegated to 2 year olds. So I recommend this to all of us who saw it in our childhood and to anyone with a child or grandchild who is 2 or 3 years old.
Summary of Peter Pan (30th Anniversary Collector's Edition) [VHS]
An entire generation of baby boomers grew up with this stagy but magical production, which originated on Broadway but was broadcast several times on TV. They may not know Mary Martin or Cyril Ritchard--two staples of the commercial theater in their time--for any other reason, but they'll always be able to name them as Peter Pan and Captain Hook. The story of the boy who wouldn't grow up includes a classic score with songs that can bring a tear of nostalgia to the eye of the middle-aged--like "I Won't Grow Up," "I've Gotta Crow," and "Neverland." The flying, the goofy comedy--it's all there in this video version of the classic TV broadcast. It's hard to know what sophisticated modern youngsters would make of it, but their parents will gladly sit and watch with them. --Marshall FineMovies most talked about in Video Genres
