It's hard not to like this movie when you watch it. It has the innocence of forest gump with a touch of sadness. The writing and acting of this movie are simply great. The little boy does a great job. There isn't much more you could have asked of him in this movie. You can actually feel the sadness for the little boy, and without revealing the ending can see that happiness might not be as was expected but is still a part of Hollywood. The writers did a great job of trying to see the world through a child's eye. While showing some of the ugliness of it on the outside. The relationship between the little boy and the "jap" is very touching and funny. You can tell he is genuinely concerned for the kid more so than maybe anyone else in the movie. Well done and worth the view.
