The cinema was in total darkness when we went in, and it was no easy matter making our way<br />to our seats. The old man who had come in ahead of us was luckier. He had a stick to help him<br />find his way, like a blind man. It's very funny not to have any lights on before the film starts,<br />I commented. And no music either, added my husband. Well, perhaps they are saving money?<br />We were in one of the rows nearest the entrance. We heard others pass by, but we could not tell<br />how big the audience was. Obviously, however, the cinema did not get very crowded at that time of day.<br />It must be two o'clock already, my husband said, getting restless. Can you see your watch?<br />My eyes had now grown accustomed to the darkness, and by bringing my watch close to my eyes,<br />I could just make out that it was a little after two. Just then the program started,<br />but we were disappointed to find that there had been a change. The second of the two films,<br />which we were not interested in seeing, was being shown first.<br />The cinema was in total darkness when we went in, and it was no easy matter making our way to<br />our seats.
