it's too good to be true.

The tolerance of the two heroines towards each other made me doubt whether there really is such a strong friendship in this world. And the tolerance of all the protagonists in the play at the same time makes me envious. This may not be true. This may be contrary to the mother's nature to protect her son and resentment for being hurt, which makes this movie possible.
What's wrong with this movie with the label of "ethics".
In fact, this is just a match for ordinary young and old. But in this four-corner relationship, it makes people tangled for a while. Unexpectedly, the relationship can develop! Is it the motherhood's inability to resist true love, or does true love destroy friendship. But the end of the movie seems to illustrate the former.
Towards the end, "it's all your fault." seemed to be saying something. It was accusing her of resisting the temptation at the beginning. If she was a mother and was responsible, she would not let him make mistakes and things would not happen. It develops into this, but, who knows.
I feel that there is no need to modify the taste of the film too much, the calm narrative, the beautiful seascape, and the charming actors are enough.
