Hearts in Atlantis,Children of Men

I think its the idea of love coming under attack and the frailty thru which people must endure i find moving. In Hearts in Atlantis we have a fatherless boy for a short time having a benevolent Father figure to love who brings great joy into his otherwise mundane existence only to have forces beyond them both tear them apart destroying the warmth that had grown. Children of Men i think for its juxtaposing vulnerable innocence with monstrous devouring evil which seeks relentlessly to stomp out any trace of goodness which arises in the world. This theme is found in many films i tend not to in my older years find fantasy features like LotR etc entertaining so CoM delivers the theme within more realistic terms.
