This scene with the music breaks me. The boy's father passes right by him. Only his mother knows her boy.

My God this scene still gets me, every time... one of my favourite films of all time, totally authentic, an absolute masterpiece.

This scene wrecks me every time. One of the most emotional closing scenes ever.

Movie was extremely underrated. Watched this when I was 9-10 years old Christian Bale captures whatever character he portrays with absolute perfection. The ending is one of my, if not the most, emotional of all time.

This movie moved my heart forever!

What a fine actor Christian Bales was (and is) at such a young age. And of course, Spielberg.

I alway cry,when i watch this scene.

He's in shock. He's been separated from his parents for more than three years. The camp he was in was running short of food, so he experienced near-starvation conditions. The song is a Welsh lullaby.

Tears roll down my eyes wth this scene, truly wonderful and emotional. Just love this film. ❤

Empire of The sun

Jim once said in the concentration camp, "He can not remember his parents' face." He wants to look and touch his mother's face again. The suffering has come to an end

A powerful, emotional movie to end a great movie.

Cymru am byth ❤

It makes me laugh but also proud. This song is actually Welsh. .........

John Williams es un autentico genio

The song is Suo Gân, a Welsh lullaby by an unknown composer/songwriter, sung in Welsh. The words are appropriate to the circumstances of the film although initially shown as a chapel choir performance (it's not religious although often assumed to be). Verse one: Sleep my darling, on my bosom, Harm will never come to you; Mother's arms enfold you safely, Mother's heart is ever true. As you sleep there's naught to scare you, Naught to wake you from your rest; Close those eyelids, little angel, Sleep upon your mother's breast.

Incorpora com a mais absoluta perfeição o espírito do filme.

I love this movie why isn’t on tv ?❤😢

Nueve meses viviendo con el en su panza y despues d tanto tiempo sin verlo claro k lo reconocio la sangre llama y el amor d una madre mucho mas k final tan conmovedor

Grande Christian Bale questo attore ha sempre avuto un gran talento dimostrandolo in questo film

great singers and film

no hay muchas mas situaciones en la vida en las que se pueda sentir mas emocion

Eu adoro esse filme, essa canção e toda a transformação de "Jim" (Christian Bale) durante seu sofrimento na guerra quando ele foi separado de seus pais .

Great Spielberg film, although the film should have ended when Jamie closes his eyes. That sequence afterwards deflates that beautiful moment and always felt pointless to me.

Home, is your mother's arms.

Not a dry eye in the house

He can rest now.

What's this song got to do with John Williams? It's a Welsh folk-song from centuries ago.

Every time I listen to this famous song and watch this scene , I cry because of nostalgia and sad memories . From chaotic Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun Which country is yours ？

It's an incredibly touching scene, but seriously? You would only organise this mass meat market for estranged parents and kids when the kids were so damaged by internment they had forgotten their own names, and there's no evidence of that
