In 1998 she discovered a play called "The Man Who Was Peter Pan" written by fellow 42nd Street WorkShop member, Allan Knee. She saw it clearly as a film, and after optioning the play, found then unknown writer, David Magee, and commissioned him to write the screenplay. With the help of many people (Tracey Becker, Michelle Sy, Joan Scott, Marti Blumenthal) Nellie got it set up at Miramax Films, where Harvey Weinstein saw its potential. Thus, the film "Finding Neverland" was shot in London in 2002, starring Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet.
