Back in the 1950s and '60s, J. M. Barrie's 'Peter Pan' — starring Mary Martin and Cyril Ritchard — was regularly aired on network television during the Christmas season. I must have seen it four or five times and remember, in particular, Ritchard's gloriously camp interpretation of Captain Hook.

It's not the color of our skin that divides our nation...Death is the ugly fact which Nature has to hide...If you don't have an emotional connection...Float like a butterfly...Indeed it is better to postpone, lest either we complete...Get not your friends...
