History Film / PeterPan1924

* PajamaCladHero: The Darling children, but only at first. After a TimeSkip, they've been in Neverland for a while and have new outfits similar to [[GardenGarmet Peter Pan's]].

* DisneyVillainDeath: Captain Hook is made to WalkThePlank after being defeated by Peter Pan and he falls into the sea below. A scene later, we see the crocodile coming out of the show and [[SpitOutAShoe spitting out Hook's boot]].

* DeadHatShot: At the end, there's a shot of the crocodile coughing up Hook's shoe, implying he was eaten.

* SettingUpdate: The film may come across this way to modern viewers, as the real-world scenes are clearly set in the contemporary 1920s. However, this was made only twenty years after the play was written, and it wasn't yet customary to treat ''Peter Pan'' as an Edwardian period piece. Indeed, Barrie continued to edit the play's script through 1928, four years after this film came out.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Peter goes barefoot in this version. Amusingly, he tells Wendy that she will, "darn our socks." You don't wear any, Peter.

* EarlyAdaptationWeirdness: The film was made less than thirty years after the play. It's a SettingUpdate set in the contemporary 1920s. This was before adaptations became FrozenInTime in the 1910s. The characters are also American instead of British, which is something later adaptations never change.

* PlayingGertrude: Mrs. Darling is played by Esther Ralston, who was twenty-one at the time. That's just three years older than Mary Brian, her onscreen daughter.

* CulturalTranslation: Every British reference from the original becomes American, with "English gentleman" rendered as "American gentleman," John asking Hook about loyalty to "the Stars and Stripes" instead of "the King," a U.S. flag being raised on the pirate ship after Hook's defeat, and Peter talking about growing up to be "president" instead of just "a man." That last one seems especially excessive.

** For the U.K. release, the British references were left in, and they raise the Union Jack instead. Considering the film was once thought to be lost, and the two copies that have been found both came from U.S. sources, it's likely the U.K. version is lost.

* PajamaCladHero: The Darling children at first, but then, they have new outfits after the film skips forward to them having been in Neverland for a while.
