This is Walt Disney’s latest cartoon, which he says gave him the greatest challenge he has ever faced, for which 500,000 separate drawings and sketches were made, at least 200,000 going before the Technicolor camera Tinker Bell, the tiny pixie who is Peter Pan's friend. Her jealousy causes trouble. Peter Pan with the three Darlings —- John, Michael and Wendy—stand at the Never Never Land. gazing Peter Pan tells off the Lost Boys for their stupidity in romping round unawares. Smee defies the Crocodile, who is the terror of Captain Hook, the villainous Pirate, whom the Crocodile, who had eaten his arm, follows round for more. Mrs. Darling dresses Mr. Darling in readiness for going out one evening, leaving the children in care of their nurse — Nana. While' Hook is chased over the horizon by the hungry Crocodile, the children decide to go home. The Darling children wave good- bye to Peter Pan in his magic ship. Peter Pan saves Tiger Lily, daughter of the local Indian chief, from Captain Hook’s attempt to drown her. The Lost Boys—including the Darlings—are captured by the Indians. Nana, their dog nursemaid, bays her distress as she sees her charges flying above her. Peter Pan introduces Wendy to the Mermaids.
