I'm in this movie

After 37 years I finally get to see this movie. I was an extra in the football crowd scene and enjoyed playing woman with primrose yellow hat and dress sitting in the front row of spectators.

We were picked up from a youth hostel in Shanghai and brought to the film set. Then we told to react on cue. Pay was a few renminbi, sandwiches and beer. I did not see all the connected groups or scenes till now. This is a crazy off the wall story and I cried at the ending.

I used a picture of me and then boyfriend for our wedding invitation. I am available for any sequels as I am clearly quite good at cheering on cue.
