This is a movie I watched on the high-speed rail in 2017. Now, revisiting the classics brings tears to my eyes again.

The protagonist is a "special" boy, he is a dwarf, he loves his family, he is full of hope and love, he is strong in his beliefs, he is brave and fearless. The little boy broke the inherent hostility and became friends with the Japanese; he believed in the power of a seed, the "moving" mountain (earthquake); he longed for peace, and was willing to do anything in exchange for a truce, let his father go home and become famous A fairy tale of "ending the war with faith" is deduced.

The little boy is a dwarf, who is often mocked and bullied. The little boy is sad, inferior, and even self-doubt, but with the help of the Japanese uncle, he can also be the tallest person in the town. The words that the uncle said to the little boy, I have been saving it in the mobile phone album, and I look at it when I am depressed or lost. It always gives me courage and hope inexplicably.

I also had an inferiority complex. Compared with my friends, I was not good-looking and had a poor figure. Compared with my colleagues, I didn’t earn much money and my ability was not as good as his. These gaps also made me doubt myself for a while, whether I was really bad. , will always fall behind and become a professional "dwarf".

However, everyone is unique and has a specific meaning. If you can't do it now, it doesn't mean you won't succeed. You can only get better and better by making yourself better every day. Hopeful, yearning for freedom, reluctant to give up warmth and purity.

Don't always think you're a dwarf, measure your distance to the sky and you'll be the tallest person in town.

Little Boy quotes

  • Pepper Flynt Busbee: Why wouldn't God want to bring my dad back?

    Fr. Crispin: I don't know.

    Pepper Flynt Busbee: But if I get enough faith, nothing's impossible, right?

  • Pepper Flynt Busbee: How could I get bigger faith?

    Fr. Crispin: [slams down a large Bible and extracts a small piece of paper] The list, the ancient list. For centuries, people believe that if you do this list, it'll make your faith powerful. This is what you have to do. Feed the hungry. Shelter the homeless. Visit those in prison. Clothe the naked.

    Pepper Flynt Busbee: Naked? How is that supposed to...

    Fr. Crispin: [pressing on] Visit the sick. Bury the dead. Oh, just one more thing. In order to make this list work for you, I'm gonna add one essential item.

    Fr. Crispin: It's your choice, Pepper.

    Pepper Flynt Busbee: What does that Jap have to do with anything?
