Peter Pan (J. M. Barrie) - chapter 4
The Flight scene
INT./EXT. CHILDREN’S BEDROOM – NIGHT
Peter Pan flies through the window and draws Wendy, John and Michael to him with his
malicious words.
PP : “Do you want to meet mermaids ? “
Wendy: “Oh !”
PP: “Indians?”
J and M: “Really ? Indians ?!”
PP: “Pirates?”
Children: “Pirates ?!!...”
They all follow him as a sudden (1:00:17:00).
EXT. ABOVE LONDON – NIGHT
They fly over London’s roofs and towers, make a circle around Big Ben’s tower.
After following Peter, John and Michael start a race to challenge each other (1:00:37:16).
They suddenly pass through a cloud (1:00:42:13).
EXT. ABOVE THE SEA – SUNRISE
After a few seconds of uncertainty, they emerge in the sunrise, above the sea (1:00:46:14).
They are amazed, Peter is proud.
Peter dives towards the sea. He almost touches the surface of water while flying. He flies
among jumping dolphins (1:01:06:01), then catches up with the others (1:01:18:15).
EXT. TIMELAPSE
On the same shot, we see the children flying as the sun goes down, the moon rises, then the
sun comes back and goes down, as the landscape changes to mountains.
EXT. ABOVE MOUNTAINS – SUNSET
Michael falls asleep in the sunset, surrounded by delicate snowflakes. Suddenly he literally
starts falling (1:01:47:00). Wendy screams. Peter laughs, but then he dives again after
Michael who is falling towards the mountains.
Peter catches Michael just before he hits a summit (1:02:02:20), and while holding him he
flies up again, extremely fast, into the night sky.
Wendy sees them coming.
W: “John, hold me !!!”
John obeys. As Peter and Michael pass by them, she catches Michael’s feet.
They all fly extremely fast towards the stars, at whom Peter is giving his biggest smile.
Light goes brighter, everything is blurred and Wendy has to close her eyes.
EXT. NEVERLAND – SUNRISE
Suddenly they emerge into the sunrise light (1:02:13:18), and progressively appears the
wonderful Neverland.
The children stare in wonder and we are given a fantastic view of the island.
They fly through the clouds above the island and contemplate all of its wonders.
Flying above the pirates’ ship, they hide quickly behind a cloud (1:02:40:12).
They keep flying towards the island.
