Faith, Hope and Love

There are too many things worth talking about in the film. I will only pick one point and say that the
film is generally talking about a question of belief or not. The question is asked very well. When each of us grows up, we begin to think about the issue of authenticity, the authenticity of events, and the authenticity of people's hearts. . . As if it were one of the hallmarks of our maturity.
But in fact we have to wonder what doubt brings us (note how ironic this sentence is). Belief is a beautiful emotion, and "unconditional belief" is a very sweet love story. But all beautiful emotions are so difficult to achieve.

In fact, just like the title, I always feel that the film has religious overtones, because Christian philosophers once pointed out that faith is the foundation of everything. What this film teaches is the issue of faith, and even the latter two "hope and love" are also reflected in the film.

How do you all feel?

The Polar Express quotes

  • [repeated line]

    The Boy: I believe.

  • Hobo: What exactly is... is your persuasion on the Big Man, since you brought him up?

    The Boy: Well, I... I want to believe... but...

    Hobo: But you don't want to be bamboozled. You don't want to be led down the primrose path! You don't want to be conned or duped. Have the wool pulled over your eyes. Hoodwinked! You don't want to be taken for a ride. Railroaded!

    [Hobo puts out fire with the joe]

    Hobo: Seeing is believing. Am I right?
