The picture is really beautiful, the colors, shading, and lens settings are beautiful and symbolic.
There are many scenes that left me with a deep image. Among them, the changes in the environment in two scenes just caught the mood of the characters, making people unable to help but sigh: 1. Yumiko visited her mother-in-law for the first time after her remarriage. In a few short conversations, sunlight suddenly appeared in the gray morning, which was the first ray of sunshine after Yumiko lost her husband; 2. When the crowd marched during the funeral of mother-in-law Rino, the sky suddenly snowed.
Very little BGM is used, and there are a lot of ambient sounds, very similar to other works by Hirokazu Koreeda. There is no need for BGM to sensationalize, and the overall plot is more restrained and restrained, so it is particularly moving when emotions burst out. (The seaside town feel is reminiscent of Manchester by the sea)
What makes me feel a little uncomfortable is that it is a bit tiresome to watch too many shots of continuous beauty in form.
