Peter Pan

Dir. Herbert Brenon U.S. 1924
102 min. Color-tinted B&W. (no soundtrack)


Kino proudly presents Paramount studios' memorable 1924 production of Peter Pan, fully restored from original nitrate materials, with authentic color tints and a new musical score.

Betty Bronson, a relatively inexperienced teenage actress, was called the "find of the year" by The New York Times and, according to film historian William K. Everson, "gives a radiant performance...brilliantly capturing every nuance of the story." Herbert Brenon (Beau Geste) directed, James Wong Howe (The Thin Man) was cinematographer, Ernest Torrence (Tol'able David) made a gorgeously robust Captain Hook and Anna May Wong was Tiger Lilly. This 1924 film of James M. Barrie's timeless play retains all its period charm.

Available in 35mm & 16mm
