The power of belief

The little boy in the movie was born short and was often bullied by his peers. The little boy's only friend and playmate is his father. His father gave him positive and positive teachings, which allowed him to have a happy childhood. until--

During World War II, every family had to be called up to the army, but the little boy's older brother couldn't enlist for his father because of his "flat feet". Therefore, this quota is borne by the father.

Before his father was about to go home, the little boy spent all his savings and bought his father's favorite pair of shoes, which he wanted to give to his father. Unexpectedly, before he could wait for his father, he ushered in bad news: his father was captured. Although his brother and others believed that his father was dead, he still believed that his father was alive. He will use faith to bring his father back and reunite the family.

The priest gave him an "ancient checklist" and let him complete the above tasks, the belief in his heart would come true, and his father would come back to him. In the process of completing the mission, he became friends with the Japanese Hashimoto, breaking people's dissatisfaction with the Japanese at the time.

Finally, the father returned, and the little boy's wish came true.

Faith is very important, as long as you stick to it, your wish will come true, whether it is God or man-made. The clip of the little boy "casting spells" on the bottle, the mountain and the sea makes me feel that he is both innocent and cute. The power contained in this small body is beyond our reach. Maybe we also have to learn how to hold on to our beliefs, how to be brave, and how to eliminate prejudice.

A happy ending is a light and a hope that shines on us.

Little Boy quotes

  • 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.

    [writing]

    Pepper Flynt Busbee: "Befriend Hashimoto?" Are you crazy?

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

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

    Fr. Crispin: Everything. Your faith won't work if you have even the slightest bit of hatred in you.

    Pepper Flynt Busbee: Fine. I'll do it, if that's what it takes to bring my dad back.

  • Pepper Flynt Busbee: I need to end the war. My dad can't come back until it's over.
