The film has a retro style: rough lines, slightly depressing colors, calm small town life, and even the rhythm of the film is smooth and flowing like a river, only suddenly shocks and changes at the end. However, obviously this is not the core of the story. The youthful and unrequited love of adults is the core of the film. Both of them love someone who shouldn't love, but their understanding of love is completely different, so the plot of the boy scolding Madd appears in the film. However, love is figured out again. Both of them saw the dedication and tolerance of love in each other, and finally made their own choices. After all, love is beautiful, but life is very realistic.
As the plot progresses, the film's performance of the river gradually changes, from shrouded in fog to bright sunshine, from calm to turbulent, and finally to the wide river and boundless river. The Mississippi River is the river of fathers in the United States. His forbearance, tolerance, and persistent character may be the ultimate theme that the director wants to express.
