Summer cinema last night. I'm sitting in the last row, the movie starts. Ten minutes in, a woman two rows in front of me takes out her phone and starts scrolling with the brightness at full. Seeing she has no intention of stopping, I tell her, "Could you lower the brightness because it's distracting?" She doesn't respond. She turns off her phone and looks at her companion with a face like, "How dare she tell me off?"

Throughout the whole time until the break, she barely looked at the big screen for 10 minutes. She was bending over and talking to her companion who was sitting in the seat next to her, looking back and forth, everywhere except at the screen. I hold on.
After the break, she takes out her phone again and slightly closes the cover to block the light, but it was still bright. It went on like this for about 15 minutes, until she stretched out her hand to show something to her poor husband who was trying to watch the movie. At that point, I lost my temper, got up, and sat directly in front of her. Note that I’m 1.83 meters tall. Within three minutes, I hear them gathering their things to leave. As they stood up, I turn back and tell her, "It’s your right not to want to watch the movie, but you must respect others who want to watch it. Your phone is distracting, and it’s rude to use it. If you want to play with your phone, you can go to the back row." She looks at me very offended and says, "We are in the back row." I tell her, "I was in the back row and had the misfortune of sitting behind you. Even if there’s only one person behind you, you must respect them." She says, "So many empty seats in front and you came here?" I did it on purpose, I tell her, so you can see how it feels... She left muttering. And so I managed to watch the rest of the movie without distractions.
Why I am writing these story because I want to say to everyone that distract people that wants to watch movies at the cinema to go fuck themselves 😂😂
