I always feel that writers advocate human nature, and Kipling's deep loyalty to the king makes it difficult for me to understand....

Facts have proved that the British are only good at making literary films. The first half of the story is good from the son's joining the army to the battle. But the family's reaction after the son's death was really contrived, giving people a very unnatural...

After hearing the news of their son's death, the family's mourning expressions alternate with Jack fumbling through his glasses... I really like the poem Not This Tide that Kipling reads at the...

This is just an ordinary war-torn family. The film is light, and the last 30 minutes are uncomfortable. A son who wants to prove that he has left the family, a father who wants his son to realize his ideals. One is too simple and the other is too idealistic. It is a pity that war is not a child's play, and there is always a price to pay. It would be too cruel to say that it was the father who killed the son, and it cannot simply be said that it was the deception of the fathers. Love...

A hot-blooded boy with a high degree of myopia, at his age, the understanding of glory is equal to impulsiveness, and the love of parents is a bit more like the heart of the poor world parents in the...
My Boy Jack Comments
-
Rudyard Kipling: [after being informed of Jack's death] By all accounts he was very brave, so few of us have the opportunity to play our part properly. But he did. He achieved what he set out to achieve.
Caroline Kipling: He must have been in such awful pain.
Rudyard Kipling: If you talked to wounded soldiers they would tell you the pain only sets in later. So, he was lucky. I was done with quickly.
Caroline Kipling: Don't tell me he was lucky! He wasn't lucky, or... or Brave, or happy! Jack was eighteen years and 1 day old! He died in the rain, he couldn't see a thing, he was alone! You can't persuade me that there's any glory in that!

Caroline Kipling: [crying] I miss him.
Rudyard Kipling: [bursts into tears] So do I.
Caroline Kipling: I can feel his head on my chest. I can feel his thick hair under my fingers. I can hear him laugh. I can feel his heat against me.
