Blue Valentine is a raw and gritty portrayal of how a relationship goes awry. The narrative moves in time cycles to depict Dean and Cindy's romance, which culminates in a bitter reality about their troubled marriage after a passionate start. Dual narrative has been used, which underlines the love's beauty and its vulnerability. The emotional breakdown is devastating, as it underlines the fact that sometimes love isn't enough for two people to stay together. The honesty and unflinching nature of Blue Valentine make it one of the most emotionally exhausting love stories to watch.
