As there weren’t much space between the rows, his legs began to ache shortly after he took up his seat. Worse still, they found it difficult to breath easily. Looking around, he saw a lot of people smoking. At last the film started. That made him angry was that the person in front was wearing so big hat that he could hardly see the screen.
