What's even more rare is that the story is told from the perspective of a boy from the beginning to the end. The ignorant and dull teenager, facing a strange creature like a girl, must be full of 100,000 whys in his mind.
The experiences of adolescence can be summed up in the same way, and there are literally thousands of unique stories unfolded.
But what impresses me most in the whole film is not the youthful love, but the scene of five people standing under the lighthouse after the class reunion.
No storytelling skill can match the power of real touch.
