All the film techniques used, the motion of the movie machine, the light, what is displayed on the screen, and so on, have definite narrative reasons. Psychologically, The more interesting part, generally speaking, in a relationship, one party must "blind" in order to make the relationship survive. Due to the relationship with gender inequality, many directors such as Howard Hawks, the understanding of the relationship between men and women, usually deal with That's it. In this film, the relationship between the boy and the mother, the relationship between the boy and the woman when he grows up, the psychological meaning of "blindness", and the symbolic meaning are all clearly expressed, and this blindness is set.
