Peter Frye, typical American boy, is orphaned when his parents are caught in the London Blitz. He is not told of their fate, but shuttled from one selfish relative to the next, ending with "Gramp," a kindly ex-vaudevillean. Peter and Gramp, both fond of "Irish bulls," get along fine; but the morning after Peter finally learns he's an orphan, his hair spontaneously turns green! The absurd over-reactions of stupid people overturn his life as the story becomes a parable. 《绿发男孩》看片笔记。惨绿少年。。 战争孤儿彼得，经过小镇上警察的帮助和一个退休的演员住在一起。 有天，他看到了战争海报上的孤儿照片，让他感到深切的触动，认为自己也可能是这些战争孤儿中的一员。被这种念头折磨着，他的头发一夜之间变成了绿色。 同伴们的嘲笑，让小男孩彼得逃离了小镇。但是最后他却终于发现自己的使命，那就是告诉所有的人们战争对孩子们的伤害。绿色的头发，让彼得不再是一个孤儿，而便成为上帝的信使。
