Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Boy is a 2010 dramedy directed by Taika Waititi.In late 1984, 11-year old Alamein Ranginui (called "Boy") lives on a small farm together with his grandmother, his younger brother and several cousins. When his grandmother leaves for the city for a week and he is left in charge of the house, his previously jailed father, also called Alamein, suddenly appears. While Boy often dreamed of a life with his father and hopes to get closer to him again, Alamein is out to find the robbed money he once buried in the area. Soon, Boy realises that his father is not the idol he always imagined.Not to be confused with the Japanese film Boy (1969), The Boy or The Boy (2015).

Bittersweet Ending: Boy's grandmother returns, meaning that that he, Rocky and their cousins have a caring and responsible adult looking after them. However, Boy's image of his father has been largely shattered. Alamein turns out to still be around, so the possibility of reconciliation is there. However, it's not clear if Alamein plans on sticking around or if he'll just run off on his family again.

Big Brother Bully: Boy is this to Rocky, insulting him constantly and, according to Rocky, even blaming him for their mother's death, saying that his 'super-powers' killed her.

Boomerang Bigot: Alamein reveals that he drew a swastika on his old bedroom wall, though he's matured enough to admonish his own son to not "get involved in the Nazi stuff."
