EXT. TO DRAG OR NOT TO DRAG THAT IS THE QUESTION - DAY

I appreciate the awareness that Wang Bing is trying to raise in the first 90 minutes of the film. It’s the same message at 120 minutes into the film, and it’s the same message at 212 minutes. I’m trying to say that it could have been shorter and had the same impact.

FADE OUT.
