Many films use props to decorate the plot, but unlike many other films, the prop "fan" runs through the entire film and plays a great role in promoting the plot and shaping the characters.
When the fan first appeared, the mother explained that it was the love language of men and women in this century. Although it has been shown directly before, the film once again uses details to reflect the style of the mother, and also emphasizes her charm and connotation.
The prop "fan" plays a more prominent role in the plot. The mother drew closer to Windermere through a fan, and then a series of things happened. At the climax of the film, the daughter ran away from home because of a misunderstanding and ran to the suitor's boat. The group of men just came back, and the daughter hid but was almost exposed because of the fan. The mother saved her at the cost of ruining her own name, and the daughter finally cleared up the misunderstanding. It can be said that the prop of "fan" is a key factor for the mother to get close to her daughter, and it is also an important factor for the improvement of the relationship between the two, which runs through the whole film.
