About This Movie

Back to Neverland is one of those intriguing blends of animation and documentary that's pretty unique in its execution. You’ve got Walter Cronkite, who brings this classic gravitas to the whole experience, guiding a young Disneyland visitor named Robin through the magic of Disney's hand-drawn animation. The pacing is relaxed, allowing viewers to soak in not just the whimsical art but also the behind-the-scenes processes that bring characters to life. It's a charming ride through nostalgia, especially for those who hold Peter Pan dear. The practical effects, while simple, add a layer of authenticity, and Cronkite's presence really does something special, making it feel like a personal journey into Disney's imagination.
