As a short film of more than forty minutes, the film is relaxed and compact enough, has a comical style, has constant misunderstandings, and is full of physical and funny situations. Its most prominent feature is the dramatic use of the plot in the play, allowing the film to gallop in a similar world exaggeratedly, achieving two levels of fulfillment in life-the protagonist has a happy ending in his dream, as well as the reality in the film. A happy ending. The plot and theme of the film are extremely simple, presenting the dreams of ordinary people. The lead role in The Great Stone Face's personally characteristic performance successfully interprets the protagonist's low-level traits, expressing simple human nature with funny body language. Watching the film is like watching a funny stage play, and feel pure happiness in the simple but universal story of pursuit of dreams and love.
