The movie, The Lost Boys tells the story of a group of vampires who terrorize the fictional town of Santa Carla, California, until a group of younger teenagers kills them.

Barrie portrays Peter as a spontaneous and cocky boy, yet a boy who is overcome by a blind devotion to the principles of fairness when facing impediments, or as Captain Hook calls it, “good form.” Barrie shows how…

On the contrary Cathy is practical, desirous, self-staring and determined. She has a clear idea of her future, with a practical approach towards it as she looked confident and unclouded about her future and also as she based her career decision over Ian’s. Her determination is showed throughout as she keeps trying her best to make Ian a part of the active conversation, so that she can get a fair idea of her life with him.
