| Simon Birch
(1998)
|
Simon Birch fulfilled the role of
mediator by speaking up to authority on issues of justice. I
love the scene in the church when he challenges the pastor on
"church business". Throughout the movie he
was an example of a powerless boy standing up for what was right
and pointing others to goodness and to God. (Judith
Snyder) |
