Steven Spielberg’s 1991 film Hook received five Academy Award nominations.
The fantasy adventure starred Robin Williams as Peter Banning, Dustin Hoffman as Captain Hook, and Julia Roberts as Tinker Bell. It presented an adult continuation of Peter Pan’s story, with Peter returning to Neverland after forgetting his childhood.
Hook’s five nominations covered major craft categories rather than acting or directing. The film was recognized for art direction, costume design, makeup, original song, and visual effects. “When You’re Alone,” written by John Debney, Bruce Broughton, and Leslie Bricusse, received the original-song nomination.
Although Hook was popular with audiences, it did not win an Academy Award. It is sometimes remembered as a Disney film because of its family-fantasy subject and distribution history, but it was directed by Spielberg and released by TriStar Pictures. The nomination total refers to the 64th Academy Awards, honoring films released in 1991.
