"Empire of the Sun"

Composer: John Williams

*Music originally from Welsh lullaby with an unknown composer

[kthx]

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

What a fine actor Christian Bales was (and is) at such a young age.

And of course, Spielberg.

[lawrencedemaria]

One of the most underrated films of all time!

[shirleyhair]

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

[Moggy]

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

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.

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.

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.

[thomasromano]

A powerful, emotional movie to end a great movie.

[zerstorer]

I've been watching this movie, especially the kamikaze scene and this following for 30+ years and still it breaks my heart and i end in tears, irrelevant how many times i watch it and how old i was/am/will be

[chavezadventure]

Empire of The sun <3
Steve Spielberg, John Williams and Christian Bale, makes magic <3

[propriusly]

Unbelievable acting, just perfection 😢😢😢

[tanasetsubjareon]

I alway cry, when i watch this scene.

[pegxo]

The suitcase floating away always affects me deeply. It's Jaime's childhood, floating away forever.

[JuliaAMPaul]

When I sing this no one knows what I'm saying but they understand the passion behind it

[josecarvalho]

Incorpora com a mais absoluta perfeição o espírito do filme.

[rosaisela]

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

[tanasetsubjareon]

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

[VeronicaValdivia-pg]

From the moment he close his eyes with the lullaby song, Cant help myself but this scene always reminds of the scene from Benjamin Button closing his eyes as a baby 💔

[marcedworthy]

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