When Charles Strattion was five, he stopped growing. His mother took him to see the famous showman, P. T. Barnum, and thought a small person would be the perfect addition to his show. He hired Charles’ parents along with him, and they traveled around the world together.
He gave the two-foot-tall Charles a new name, general Tom Thumb. He taught Tom how to sing, dance, act, and tell jokes. When he felt Tom was ready to perform on stage, he made up ads. To stir up great interest, he said that Tom was eleven years old and had come from England.

With a baby on his way, a young
couple, Burt and Verona, look at their lives and are puzzled about what
they really want. So they hit the road and seek a place to call home. On their journey, they visit a handful of
characters and learned a lot. 
Easther, a bright and
well-behaved child, however, is not as innocent as she appears. Soon after
being taken home, the peace of her adoptive family is completely changed…
Tom is in love with Summer from
the moment he sees her. Can he accept that she simply likes him for now, not
for forever? The movie is about Tom wrestling with that reality. Tom
remembers his love, Summer, as a series of joys and bafflements(阻碍,迷惑). But Summer is just herself
and he cannot have her. 
The director Roland Emmerich
successfully dresses a corny story with an old Mayan prediction, which is
believed by many to happen in the coming 2012 and as a result, attracts
millions of people into the cinema.
