Character History
Captain Hook, the leader of the legendary ship "Cheerful Roger" from the island of Neverland, - the character is ambiguous. A courage and hatred, cruelty and a tendency to quiet melancholy and even mercy are getting into the hero. The pirates boss found a pseudonym after a shameful defeat in battle with a young opponent Peter Pan. When meeting, he remembers his own name and seems like a jazon hook.History of creation
St. Peter Pan - a boy who did not want to grow up, is filled with incredible adventures. On the path of the hero of the fabulous stories of the Scottish writer James Barry, there are good wizards and evil characters, knocked out that and then harvest. The leader of the team of the pirate ship "Jolly Roger" Captain Hook became the main enemy of Peter in the second fairy tale from the cycle about the boy - "Peter Peng and Wendy" (in other translations "Peter and Wendy", "Peter Peng"). The work came to readers in 1911 and immediately turned into an adorable fiction of young book men, and eventually got the title of the classics of world children's literature.
The author decided not to go into the details of the biography of the hero, in the future it was made by cinematographers. The captain was born in a good wealthy family and in childhood he received a brilliant education, but for some reason (the reasons remained the mystery) in his youth chose the path of the sea robber. Moreover, he managed to make a dizzying pirate career.
Captain Hook, as well as part of the characters of the History, named the speaking name. Instead of hand he has a hook - everything is simple. The external characteristic of the pirate of Barry worked carefully. Pale, like a dead man, the skin looks still whiter on the background of black kid to shoulders. The eyes of amazing colors - light blue, like forget-me-not flowers. Such a mix of incompatible parts creates a terrifying image.
Gloomy, evil and cruel pirate are afraid of the members of his team, and even more energies. He does not have friends, so the hero is shown deeply alone. Because of him and sorry. The main task of the sea wolf is to preserve the "shape", do not stain the honor and not to lose faces. Contradictory and manner of communication, and the actions of the hook. The captain is extremely polite, speaks with respect with the enemies and victims, do not even expect that a minute, the interlocutor will say goodbye to life. However, at the same time, the thunderstorm of the seas and the oceans has enviable qualities: a hook bravely, smart and even sometimes kind, is capable of merciful actions, which, however, does not commit.
Among the attributes of the book character, in addition to the iron hook, replacing some of the right hand, is a special mouthpiece into two cigars. The device rarely leaves the mouth of the captain.
Captain Hook and Peter Peng
The pirate ship "Cheerful Roger" settled near the fictional island of Netland. The crew led by the ruthless captain hook enters the inhabitants of the town, lost in the seas. Here, on the island, Peter Peng settled together with the company lost boys.
Once in the battle with a bold young hero, the leader of the pirates of Netland launched his hands. The chopped limb Peter threw a crocodile. Since then, James is terribly afraid of this animal, which follows him on the heels. Warning captain about the danger sound of ticking hours, swallowed by a crocodile with hand.
The offended hook pursues only one goal - to destroy the bold boy. But plans are definitely rushing. Another case was introduced when Peter led to the island of Vendy's girl. Deathing the Indians who became the allies of the company's children, the hook managed to put out the juvenile inhabitants of the island from the shelter and pick up the ship. Here they were waiting for an inevitable death, because the "Roger" captain conceived to arrange execution.
Peter Peng came to the help, Peter Peng, who managed to get to the enemy ship, free the captives from the shackles, and the children all got together in battle with pirates. Good enthusiassed, and Captain Hook voluntarily jumped into the sea, where he met a crocodile. The ship moved to his homeland under the command of Peter Pan.
Shielding
Cinema surprises the interpretations of the captain of the hook. Almost all the authors of the films, where the character found a place, saw him in different ways. Only some scenarios and directors decided not to change the original.
Captain James Hook made his debut on the screens in 1924. Patter "Peter Peng" Herbert Benonea five years after the exit was so damaged that it became inaccessible to view. Only in 1995, she survived the restoration and reappeared on the screens. In the selection of actors, the author of the fairy tale took part, Ernest Torrens took part on the role of the leader of the pirates.
The piggy bank of the Soviet cinema acquired its own artistic ribbon based on a fairy tale about the eternal boy. "Peter Pan" (1987) reached Leonid Nechaev, seeing a cruel captain in Alexander Trofimov. The actor by type is similar to the book hero. In addition to hairstyles - instead of the bark, the braid is decorated. The motives of behavior also differ: "Russian" James wants to get power, glory and intimidate everyone to obey.
Wonderful free interpretation of Tale in 1991 presented Stephen Spielberg. Picture called "Captain Hook" gathered on the set of magnificent actors - Robin Williams played in it (Peter Peng), Julia Roberts (Fairy Din-Ding) and Dustin Hoffman (hook).
The filmmaker retained the controversial image of the captain, but thanks to Hoffmann, the book villain changed significantly: it looks at the audience a dark shrill look, while the skin instead the whiteness molds a tan, and the wig is replaced by a wig. The character looks like here, rather, on the baron, rather than on the pirate hardened by the winds and the sun. Changed the location and hook - the prosthesis will go to the left hand.
The screenwriter corrected the plot. The captain survived after a meeting with the crocodile and created the scarecrow from the animal, and the "hour" phobia intensified - now a man is afraid of Tikanya any clock. And he is afraid of an inexorab of approaching old age, which is angry and triggered.
Apply the appearance of the hero to the story described in the story managed the authors of Peter Peng, released on the screens in 2003 in the formulation of Paul John Hogan. The role of Jason Aizeksu - in his performance, the hook turned out to be romantic, open and sensitive.
The unexpected transformation of the captain of the hook happened in the TV series "Once in a fairy tale" (2013-2014). The hero named Killian Jones appears in the second season, taking into a series of main characters. With a pirate from the work of James Barry Hero, except that only a nickname and "profession". The Lieutenant of the Navy during the expedition to Neverland takes command of the ship instead of the deceased brother. He lost his left hand in battle with the villain by Rumpleshtiltshen, after which he took the pseudonym captain hook. In the film from the character there is an Emma Swan wife. Actor Colin O'Donokhia was transformed into a decisive and brave pirate.
And finally, the last for today the emergence of the Captain Legend on Teleekers occurred in 2015. The fairy tale "Peng: Journey to Nalandu" directed by Joe Wright and completely broke the concept of the original work and the image of a sea wolf. The role of antagonist was the pirate of a black beard (performed by Hugh Jackman), and Captain Hook turned into a friend and an ally of Peter Pan. The character in this picture is young and, most importantly, with whole hands, the inhibitory authors also blocked. Hook plays Garrett Hedlund.
The evil and dangerous, the leader of the pirates joined the pleiad of cartoon characters. The animation film "Peter Pan" presented the defector in 1940, Disney Studio. As it often happens, the heroes animators "Walt Disney Productions" were drawn from the actors who voiced them. Captain Hook did not exception - this is a copy of Hansa Crawward. Pantomime performed by the actor dressed in the appropriate suit served as the basis for creating a cruel character.
Peter Pan's eternal enemy in a cartoon completely deprived of cute character details. This is a coward and a hysterical man who managed to escape from the mouth of the crocodile. In the continuation of the film, already in 2002, called "Return to Netlanduate", an unusual phobia of the hook nourishes a huge octopus. Here the voice of the hero presented Corey Burton.
