One of the most touching things about the film is how you deal with memory in a love story.
It’s a bit the same dynamic: that a love that is lived is a love that’s received. That’s why often in love stories, it’s necessary that relationships end so that we can bring them with us and not leave them in the theater. In the end, the frozen image of a couple walking towards the horizon doesn’t leave us with much. So, it’s the idea that what has been lived can be looked at and can nourish our future loves. I really believe in that, in memory as a dynamic.
“Jo is a girl with a boy’s name, Laurie is a boy with a girl’s name,” Gerwig said. “In some ways they are each other’s twins.” Leaning into this, the film’s costume director Jacqueline Durran had the two actors subtly exchange items of clothing throughout the movie, further blurring the lines between where Jo begins and Laurie ends. –Why Timothée Chalamet & Saoirse Ronan Swapped Clothes On The Set Of Little Women

These works use glass to show transparency, diffusion, refraction, reflection as they explore identity, free will, concepts of god within the tech bubble. Aesthetics can be used as wallpaper in cyberpunk, such as in Altered Carbon, or used to express ideas alongside dialog and acting, such as in Westworld.
“Chalamet gives the impression that he cannot be flattened. He’s so delightfully tactile and physical that any attempt to do so would be in vain, or at the very least it would tonally combust the movie altogether. In watching Timmy, audiences see a much more accurate representation of the way we actually move in the world, flailing about, chewing on our lips, tripping and whatnot. His style of acting is both instinctual and incredibly intelligent. It’s not accidental.”
