Portrayals
In the 1978 BBC mini-series The Lost Boys, he was portrayed by Tim Pigott-Smith.
He did not appear in the 2004 film Finding Neverland about Sylvia and Barrie's relationship and the writing of Peter Pan. In the film, he was said to have already died when Barrie entered the family's life, but in fact was alive for most the events depicted. Removing him from the events of the movie simplified the plot, and avoided the subject of Barrie's impact on the Davies' marriage.

Famous quotes containing the word portrayals:
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
