Peter Pan flies back to the big screen with Steven Spielberg's HOOK (1991) for the Vestal Elementary PTA! All proceeds from this benefit screening go to their work to support their school, staff, and to spread a message of social justice.
In HOOK, When his young children are abducted by his old nemesis, Captain Hook (Dustin Hoffman), middle-aged lawyer Peter Banning (Robin Williams) returns to Neverland and his magical origins as Peter Pan. Peter must revisit a foggy past in which he abandoned Neverland for family life, leaving Tinkerbell (Julia Roberts) and the Lost Boys to fend for themselves. Given their bitterness toward Peter for growing up—and their allegiance to their new leader, Rufio (Dante Basco)—the old gang may not be happy to see him. Co-starring Bob Hoskins, Charlie Korsmo, and Maggie Smith as Wendy, HOOK is an unlikely fairy tale follow-up and beloved '90s classic.
