The Best Of 1991 - Hook
Hello and welcome to Redshirt Cinema Club, a weekly podcast about dads, pirates, and humungous fairies.Rounding off our rewatch of our individual picks for the best film of 1991, this week Dave's choice takes us to Neverland, and to Steven Spielberg's Hook. We all know that the core of Peter Pan's story is that he never grew up. What this high concept follow-up to the classic children's tales presupposes is... what if he did? What will we make of this awkward, occasionally magical movie? Is this one of Steven Spielberg's rare misses? And how did Peter Pan decide to run away if he was just a baby? Seriously though, because he couldn't walk, or even understand about growing up at that point, and how did he stop being a baby one he got to Neverland? We have questions.
