      The 5th screening day of the 12th # Faroe Island Film Festival# Nobody Knows will bring you "Watch Your Car", and here are some humorous comments from the front-line "City Lights"!

      Mo Yexuan:

      A good light comedy.

      The thief shouts to catch the thief - real liars are usually good actors

      The car thief who travels across the country only steals people he thinks are liars, but he is also a selfless and honest person. He sells it on the black market and donates all the money to an orphanage except for travel expenses. Even his girlfriend who drives a bus also kills him. This film has both social and contemporary humanity. The anti-corruption in it relies on thieves, and TG's anti-corruption and anti-corruption rely on mistresses. As members of socialism, do we have a relationship?...

    Evaluation action

    Eldar Alexandrovich Ryazanov is really good at making jokes through the fetters between characters. The film's opening scene is full of film noir style, with dark lighting, elongated shadows, oblique camera angles, black trench coats and wide-brimmed hats. A modern Robin Hood's story is a valuable insertion of the director's satire on the corrupt and opportunistic Soviet social bureaucracy, and Hamlet's metaphor is also skillfully...
