From the DVD case:
"Ian Holm gives one of his finest performances as J. M. Barrie, the creator of Peter Pan. The friendship he
develops with the Llewelyn Davies brothers changes both his life and the lives of millions. From their shared games and
fantasies, he weaves together the story of Peter Pan. But as tragedy strikes the family and his own marriage starts
falling apart, Barrie's relationship with his "lost boys" becomes even more complex."
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lost_Boys_%28docudrama%29:
Writer Andrew Birkin had been hired to work on a musical adaptation of Peter Pan starring Mia Farrow and Danny Kaye,
and "justified [his] presence on the set by becoming the resident Barrie expert." His proposal to the BBC was
based on his notes from that research. The script adheres closely to the known facts and timeline of the Barries' and
the Davies' lives, sometimes using surviving correspondence between the subjects as the basis for dialog, and mentioning
various events and other people in their lives in passing.
