NEW YORK, NY -- June 25, 2019 -- Kino Classics is proud to announce the Blu-ray & DVD release of the silent film classic Peter Pan, starring Betty Bronson, in a new 2K restoration from 35mm elements. This classic of silent cinema was directed by Herbert Brenon, and photographed by Academy Award®-winning cinematographer James Wong Howe (The Rose Tattoo, Hud).

Peter Pan will become available on Blu-ray and DVD July 9, 2019, with a SRP of $29.95 for the Blu-ray and $19.95 for the DVD. This edition is accompanied by an orchestral score composed and conducted by Philip C. Carli. Bonus features include a commentary by film historian Kat Ellinger, an essay by film historian Frederick C. Szebin, and an audio interview with actress Esther Ralston.

Ingeniously capturing the mysteries and wonder of childhood, J.M. Barrie's timeless play became one of the most popular films of the 1920s. Betty Bronson stars as Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up, who charms Wendy (Mary Brian) and her brothers (Philippe De Lacy, Jack Murphy) to fly with him to Never Never land. On this island of dreams and magic, they rescue the Lost Boys from Captain Hook (Ernest Torrence) and his band of pirates, encountering along the way the delightful fairy Tinker Bell (Virginia Browne Faire), a man-eating crocodile, and a band of natives (led by Anna May Wong).
