Description
Finding Neverland
Inspired by the life of James Matthew Barrie, author of the children’s classic Peter Pan, this semi-biographical period drama stars Johnny Depp as the turn-of-the-century playwright and novelist. Set in London in 1904, the film follows Barrie’s creative struggle to bring Peter Pan to the stage, from his first inspiration for the story up until the play’s premiere at the Duke of York Theatre: a night that would change not only Barrie’s own life, but the lives of everyone close to him. Meanwhile, he plays a continuing role in the lives of the four children who inspired the story. Kate Winslet, Dustin Hoffman and Julie Christie co-star.
Chocolat
Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp star in this romantic drama based on the novel by Joanne Harris. In a small old-fashioned French town, single-mother Vianne (Binoche) arrives with her six-year-old daughter, and opens up a chocolate shop. Vianne creates some mouth-watering sweets which inspire the usually dull villagers to indulge their temptations and experience some true happiness. But it is only when handsome stranger Roux (Depp) arrives in the village that Vianne begins to recognise her own desires.
