Who on earth would want to sit still for 90 minutes to watch an animated cartoon? And why pick a well-worn Grimm's Fairy Tale that every schoolkid knows? But Walt Disney seemed to thrive on projects which a lesser man might have written off as "stupid" or "impossible". Investing three years, $1,500,000, and the ... see all copies from £1.38! new only from £10.36!

Otherwise, ... see all copies from £1.38! new only from £8.31!

Barrie's Peter Pan reached full fruition in 1953.
