May you be sunshine, bright and not sad

"Little Boy" is a war movie that I was very moved after watching it. Looking at war from the perspective of a child is a highlight of the film.

The little boy originally had a good family, but because of the war, his father joined the army. During my father's absence, I came into contact with a man from Japan, who was not as he was portrayed on TV - heinous, a group of inhuman war lunatics. On the contrary, he is a very kind man. After a few things, the little boy accepted the Japanese.

After a magic show, when a little boy was "using magic", an earthquake came and the mountain was moved. He thought it was the power of magic. He had the so-called idea: to pull his father back by magic. This is a joke in the eyes of adults, but he takes it seriously, "using magic" at the seaside every day, and as a result, we all know that it will not really be pulled back.

Years passed, and in 1945 Japan surrendered unconditionally. This time, his father really came back, and I couldn't help crying watching the scene of the family embracing each other and weeping. Reunion after the turmoil is rare.

The film does not greatly exaggerate a depressing atmosphere, but a clean expression, telling a story in a straightforward and simple way, a war in the eyes of a child, a story of reunion in the eyes of a child. This kind of story is actually more touching and more heartwarming.

May you be sunshine, bright and not sad. I hope you can open Youku when you are free, watch the movie "Little Boy", and experience the warmth and emotion.

    Hashimoto: It was not stupid. It takes courage to believe. Your father would be more than proud of you. All the love you have for him was contained in that list.

    Pepper Flynt Busbee: [upon reuniting with his dad] Partner! I got the boots you really wanted. It's me, partner.
