Catherine Hardwicke, the director of "Thirteen", once dated a single father. With his daughter who is about to enter puberty, Hardwick has learned about the culture of girls and its negative impact on girls' lives. Although Hardwick later broke up with her boyfriend, he still kept in touch with his daughter Nik. When Rhett was 13 years old, Hardwick found that she had become moody, taciturn, and mysterious, spending hours even taking care of her image every morning. Out of concern, Hardwick took more time to accompany Rhett, hoping to stimulate her interest in acting or other affairs, so as to resume her normal life. Later, Reid gradually fell in love with acting and movies. Hardwick spared no effort to encourage her, hoping that she could realize her dream together, which is to direct a movie. At first, the two planned to write a relaxed and joyful youth comedy, but as their understanding of the details of girls’ lives deepened, Hardwick discovered a more fascinating story. It was a true story that Red had experienced personally, and it was a flood. In the world of chaos, anger, rebellion, sex, trendy, eating disorders, theft, self-harm, and drugs, Hardwick was completely shocked. Hardwick and Reid completed the first draft of the script in just 6 days

It is a pity that the film still remains too much on the performance of rebellion, and it is not enough to explore the psychology of adolescent children. When Tracy cut her wrist with a blade, the pain needed the viewer's resonance, otherwise too many people might not understand her pain.
