      Little Boy--Little Boy Firm and Pure Faith

      The priest moved the bottle. Little boy: You moved it. But you moved me to move it, Father. I saw that you wanted the bottle to move so much, so I moved it for you. (And that is how faith works.) Sometimes we can't do anything, but if our faith moves God, he will do it for us. But nothing is impossible if I have enough faith, right? The priest said to the little boy: "Faith will not work if you have even the slightest hatred in your heart." Your faith won't work...

      Little Boy--It Takes Courage To Believe

      The whole film did not directly describe the war, but it made me cry. From the perspective of a small family in a country on the other side of the Atlantic, which is at ease and free from the suffering of direct war, the other side depicts the impact of the war on the lives of the families of the soldiers. The originally happy family had to separate the beloved husband and wife and the harmonious father and son...

      Little Boy--Strong Faith And Infection

      I don't know, but I see the power of hatred here. Seeing that people are biased, ignore the facts, and then reject Hashimoto with the face of an "enemy" with a high profile, I feel a little uncomfortable when Hashimoto says "people won't ask you if you love this land". The emotions are always reckless and impulsive, and when a group is charged with crimes, some of them are kind.

      little boy

      He is just a little boy. His biggest dream in his life may be to spend his life with his partner, his father. However, the reality is always contrary to the ideal. Because of his brother's flat feet, his father has to go to the battlefield on his behalf. He was then taken as a prisoner of war, whose life and death were unknown. He just wants his father back, but he's just a little boy. The first shocking thing the film gave me was the belief from the weak. He was very weak, even he thought...

      believe and believe

      Innocent people can believe something so easily, and only pure people can be so inspiring.

      The last time I saw such a belief in reality was in Tibet. That pure faith, pure belief.

      Before that, I thought that the world was completely dark, and there was no place for people who didn't believe in "reality". I have never seen such firmness with my own eyes. Someone is firm in doing something that my atheist thinks has no practical effect. The fact is, it is very...

      It takes courage to choose to believe, and love and faith can work miracles in the end. This World War II film takes the United States as the perspective. The title of the film is little boy and the name of the nuclear weapon used for the first time in human history. If no matter who wins or loses and who has a vested interest, no matter which side is involved in the war, there will be a price to pay, aside from the American style. In terms of the main theme, the movie is very enjoyable to...

    Movie plot

    In the most intense period of World War II, in a quiet American town, people called an 8-year-old child "Little Boy" ( played by Akob Salvat ) . He has never grown tall, but he is not dwarfism. The doctor gave him this nickname half helplessly and half comfortingly. He was bullied by his peers, and his father was his only friend. The war is approaching. Because Little Boy's brother has flat feet, his father must join the army. Little...

    Evaluation action

    Jacob Salvati performed Little Boy, who was more than one meter tall, in a two-meter aura. He was so acclaimed at his young age that he almost supported the entire film by himself. Between his gestures, he did not lose to the adult actors around him, and his roles were sometimes pitiful and cute. The film is a warm chicken soup film suitable for the whole family to watch, emphasizing the themes of faith, hope and love. As the story...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      Ben Eagle Narrator: [narrating] This is O'Hare, California. Back then it was nothing more than a sleepy fishing village, with a hill at the end of Main Street. Like you see in postcards. My story takes place on the home front, in the midst of World War II. That's me, the little fella.

      Photographer: [motioning to the youngest]

      Little Boy: Closer?

      Freddy Fox: [ribbing him] Stop causing trouble, you midget.

      Ben Eagle Narrator: Nobody in that town liked me much.

      Photographer: One, two, three.

      [flash]

      Ben Eagle Narrator: I was eight years old. But the story really starts the day I met my dad. My only friend. My partner.

      Nurse Barbara: He's a boy!

      James Busbee: Wow! He's so...

      Nurse Barbara: What? Little?

      James Busbee: Well, he'll grow. Right?

    • Hashimoto: [holding Pepper's chin] Don't measure yourself from here to the floor. Measure yourself from here to the sky. That makes you the tallest boy in town.

    • Pepper Flynt Busbee: Why did they send you away to the camps?

      Emma Busbee: Pepper, that is not the kind of question you ask.

      Hashimoto: Mrs. Busbee, it's okay. It's simple. I have the face of the enemy. Doesn't matter if this is my home. Doesn't matter if I love this land, this country.
