"Snow Angels" has always had a seamless situational operation, the sky is bleak gray, the freezing cold winter conveys the chill of the environment, and its power is strongly transferred to the characters, from high school Arthur and his Parents, restaurant waiter Annie, her ex-husband, and boyfriend, everyone is suffering from their own pains. Love, marriage, and family are pressing them down here. The problems in the story have not been resolved at the end, and even turned into a tragedy.
Director David Gordon Green's few strokes at the beginning of the film vigorously outline the progress of the story. People realize that the director's pessimistic fatalism is lurking in the deep psychology of the characters' fear, depression, despair, and jealousy. Maybe the hope is on Arthur, maybe the director doesn't want to resort to anything. Dealing with the subtle feelings between characters, the director penetrates the images into the erratic personality of each character, and a certain sentence or expression of the character often drives a scene
