"LITTLE BOY"
In this movie, the situation takes place thru WWII and its about a boy trying to get his father home because he was taken hostage by Japan. The movie shows allot of racism toward the japanese that where liberated in the states while the war was happening. There was also allot of bullying especially towards Pepper who was called "Little Boy" by his usual small height. In one part of the movie, the Father of the church gives Little Boy a list in which he said that if he completes it, he will have enough fate to bring his father home. The list included; Visit the Sick which was the easiest won and Bury the Dead which was the last one and it was difficult because a friend he made called Hashimoto was almost killed and the government said that his dad died. In my opinion if one day I want to grow my fate and someone gives me the list, the hardest one would also be Bury the Dead because its a very sad part of life and no one would like to experience it. Also that feeling to be pressure by society is very bad and makes someone feel pressure. Trying to do something while taking care of other sis very frustrating. I guess thats our prejudice does show in this situation but I know that is a very bad feeling and is one that no one likes to show. In the movie Little boy's brother, London, feel prejudice with society because he feels that it was his fault that his dad went to the war. That brings up all sorts of problems like not feeling accepted. But he eventually changes in a situation that he and a dead son father in which he hurts Hashimoto. He stopped the man and eventually became friends with Hashimoto too. Talking about forgiveness there are various beliefs in the movie. The list symbolises the will of God and if you complete it you're fate will grow. The mustard seed symbolises the strong belief, so strong it would move a mountain. The boots symbolises the fate that there dad will come back and throwing them away will waste it. The magician symbolises the belief of the mind to move things.
