It relies heavily on established romantic clichés and European pastoral settings. By focusing on a homogeneous European setting and traditional courtship, the film avoids disrupting social hierarchies or including diverse identities. The narrative architecture prioritizes stability and sentimentality, making it a conservative storytelling example.
