That's Uncle Orson Reviews Everything. I had a quibble with one thing he said:
quote:
When he's away from Neverland, it's winter there; things only come to life when he returns. Indeed, while this will sail right over children's heads, this version of the story owes much to the myth of Eros and Psyche.
Now later he mentions the idea of a god abducting a mortal, and I think that may have more to do with Eros and Psyche. But the winter thing is Persephone and Hades myth. I thought. Anyone else familiar with this? I had to read Eros and Psyche in Latin in High School so I'm a little sketchy on the details.
