The film tells the story of the 8-year-old protagonist who is only 3 years old and may not change again. In the face of ridicule and teasing, he optimistically builds a bridge of faith with his partner father, and is in the spiritual soil strengthened by the hero magician. , the priest's "mustard seed" belief theory began to take root brilliantly. In order to pray for the early return of his father who participated in World War II, the little boy accidentally became friends with a middle-aged Japanese from an enemy country and completed the task of the mysterious list together, and finally reunited with his father who escaped death.

Pearl Harbor and the destruction of Hiroshima represent the destructive power of hatred, the situation of young boys being bullied by their peers represents the situation of middle-aged Japanese men in the United States during World War II, and the warm guidance of Japanese men to little boys represents the short-lived father's love. continuation of absence. There are no ups and downs and brain-burning plots, no sexy hypocrisy and nihilistic heroism, the screenwriter cleverly empowers a sunny and somewhat cowardly child through the natural growth structure: use stubborn beliefs to evoke a powerful universe in the heart, and decide not to. Say no to the bully, melt the hatred in your heart with warm faith, and be brave and become friends with the enemy. What "Little Boy" tells us is that love is the most moving truth to dissolve all contradictions, and peace is the most meaningful weapon to derive love. The story of tears and laughter in life will continue, and the little boy in our hearts will never expire. True faith saves human souls, not supernatural miracles.

    After the Pearl Harbor incident, strong anti-Japanese sentiment spread in the small town of O’Hare in the United States. The most unpopular one in town met by chance for friends, and completed the list of beliefs in order to get his father home. Watching such a children's movie, I was soaked with tears several times, and the warm and kindness permeated it with a hit. The little boy succeeded in moving objects in the air three times, and the stage earthquake and atomic bomb were miraculously touching. May this little boy with superpowers on the hills and the sea remain innocent forever.

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.
