...France and three young ladies to come calling, is all satiric sideshows and sashayings, mixups and false beards. In the present production, the frills are multiplied-croquet games, early gramophones and automobiles, tea on the lawn, pink coats and blazers.

Disney, playing the whimsical Barrie tale for out & out fun as well as freewheeling fantasy, has crammed it with pell-mell adventure and capering slapstick. By stressing caricature, the movie avoids much of the cute picture-postcard look that has oversweetened some of Disney's previous films.

Each of the twin boys in Chicago's University of Illinois Hospital was as cute as a button. At 15 months they both had handsome, well-formed bodies, twinkling, dark blue eyes and bewitching smiles. They loved to play pat-a-cake, could say "Hi," "Mama," "Dada," and "Nite-nite." They had just learned to say "Frog" too, because mother & father had brought them each a rubber frog. Rodney Dee Brodie was a bit smaller than Roger Lee Brodie, so Rodney got more attention. This made Roger mad, and he showed it by swatting Rodney across the face...
