This is a flesh-and-blood "youth" story, not a pretending show like "Struggle". When I found out that I would be drawn away by such a film, I knew that I was no longer so green now; when I saw Leonardo DiCaprio's face so long ago, what I saw was the youth in the film of time like a summer flower. , A cruel but brilliant youth nirvana.

    Sometimes the hardest decision in life is to start over, just as at the end of this film, Leonardo DiCaprio and his mother resolutely left this discordant family and found a new place to belong. In their own lives, only their stepfather who does not know how to change and is immersed in his own world is left. It should be said that the theme of this film is also very inspirational, and the superb acting skills of the three male and female protagonists add to the emotional appeal of the characters.
