Contrast with reality

I can't seem to laugh at the first half. Isn't this office and restaurant my experience before going to the movies? !

Office = subway station; Royal Garden restaurant = Pizza Hut

I walked from the subway entrance of Line 15 to the subway entrance of Line 8 to eat. Pizza Hut gave me a noodle and ignored me. After a long time, the order was successfully ordered. It was a cup of warm green orange tea, and I drank it for a long time. , and finally ended up with a pitiful plate of grilled wings.

There was an aunt with two children at the table next to it. The aunt was dressed plainly and behaved vulgarly. The cup in the hand of the youngest child dropped, and the cup rolled from the table to the chair next to the other girl at an extremely slow speed. When it got to the ground, the girl didn't move, just watched it smash to the ground with a snap, and the aunt looked at the waiter with a guilty conscience, but no one paid attention, so she calmly called the waiter to come over and urge the order. The broken glass was still on the ground until I walked away.

After leaving the restaurant, I thought I was going to take Line 15. I walked up and down the ground of Line 8. It was the same as Mr. Hulot's house in "My Uncle". When I got to Line 15, I found out that I was going to take Line 8. , keep going up and down and go back. I got a taxi on the subway but couldn't make it, and after I canceled it, I couldn't get a taxi again.

So it wasn't until, until the last amusement park scene that I was really happy, woohoo woohoo.

    In the real comedy, whether it is the language of the lens or the setting of the plot, every detail can be seen as a comedy with heart. The arrow at the door is that I will follow along...hahaha

    Lost in the steel walls of high-rise buildings, looking for a little bit of sunlight that has been missed, I am in a trance without the sky, and a piece of urban madness flashes in my eyes. PS: A year later, "Carnival Banquet" starring Sellers probably also paid tribute to this film intentionally or unintentionally.
