The empty mirrors in the film account for a large proportion, walking through the film like an important character, adding weight to the film. If there was an Oscar for best shot, it would go to the shores of Manchester. Emotions are the core of a movie, and everything serves emotions. The empty mirrors in this film are no worse than a seasoned actor. Of course, this can be said to be the credit of the photographer or the editor. . The gloomy, empty, and repressed emotions are beyond the reach of Casey Affleck, who plays Lee.

And the music of this film seems to be like a teenager crying by the sea, the sadness is so pure and thorough.

The boldness of the editing in this film allows memories to be interspersed at will, without any prompts and routines. But it is similar to simulating the state of mind of a real person. The seemingly chaotic editing makes the film more charming, allowing the film's emotions to jump naturally without being bound by any form.
