a grimace, kind

Just looking at the title, I thought it would be an urban story that springs to life. Didn't expect it to be a comedy. It's a lot of fun to watch, and it has an unexpected ending, which is really good. But I think most people commented that it was a black comedy, and felt a bit bitter. I don't think it's that serious, but it's actually very real, and there's nothing to exaggerate or make fun of. This is how life is, there are so many things that drive you crazy, and there is really no better way than to accept and wait. The image of the old lady inside is very full, and the roots of the hatred are itchy and helpless. She is the highlight of the film. Thinking of how she counts everything she buys in order to delay time, one--two--threee---four---, when she is interrupted, she has to start all over again, oh, it’s so funny. There is also lying on the window watching people have sex in the living room, but also a righteous look,,,. ^_^
