Hamilton

The film "Hamilton" that we saw left a lot of unanswered questions. I will tell what I thought to have happened in the film.
First of all, I think the film was supposed to take place in the early to mid nineties. I thought the opening credits were interesting because of how they went away one letter at a time. I didn't know where the film was set, so as I was watching it, I decided Florida, because they had mentioned alligators and Louisiana. Then I saw the bus and it said Maryland, so I didn't know if that was what state they were in or not. The credits at the end said MD and Baltimore, but I thought it was weird there was a sticker on the window of the truck at the end of the film that said Key West (pretty sure that's what it said).
I liked this film for the fact that it kind of reminded my of summer where I grew up. Otherwise, I was bothered that there were unanswered questions. I had thought the film was called "Hamilton" because either that's where they lived (and that turned out to be not true) or it was the kid's name--but then I guess his name turned out to be Joe. So I am still unclear as to why the film has the title that it has.
I concluded that Joe was 16-23 (as his friends were)--even though I found out he was 20 (so I was in the right age range)--and he got this one girl (the one with dark hair) pregnant. She had the baby (the red-headed baby) and was caring for her all by herself. He was off working and didn't come by to see her often. He decided to go see her at the end (when he has the flowers), but she has already left, and so he will just miss her. She seems to be upset by this.
Two things that bothered me were: 1.) why were they saying "when will you come over the house?" instead of "...come over to the house"? and 2.) I thought this film was really slow-moving and lacked action...it didn't keep your attention very well.
I suspect the fact there was not much editing (which would give different viewpoints in a single scene) was due to the type of film used. It said super 16 at the beginning, so I figured it was like super 8 that jennifer montgomery had used. This made me realize that I really enjoy the editing type film (to watch) instead.
