Please shut up - I just want to watch the film...

Few benches away sat a couple that peppered the floor of the film theatre with Daim Candy wrappers and commented while watching the film. The film was The Book Thief. When Geoffrey Rush's Hans referred Liesel as "Your Majesty" the male part of the couple commented loudly "Wrong film" as he was making a reference to other Geoffrey Rush movie The King's Speech. Don't get me wrong, it's okay to comment on the film while watching it once or twice but they kept going all the way every once in the while. If the guy thought he was whispering, he was wrong. I would watch the film on DVD, f I wanted a audio commentary,

The film was okay. Right from the beginning I was trying to figure out who was the narrator. I had to wait until the credits: Roger Allam.

 

Other not-so happy film experiences

Finding Neverland - a mother read the Finnish subtitles to her offspring.

Romeo + Juliet - the girls in the front row who had already seen the film kept repeating "It's coming now" when death scene was unfold on the screen.

Well, there have been other films. Once in France while someone was still talking as the film had started, someone else shouted "Chut"!

But then again, sometimes is nice that the audience reacts to the events of the film. It's bit awkward to be the only one laughing...
