While watching "A Simple Life" with my wife at a local cineplex, i was talking to my wife and asking her questions about the movie which was in Cantonese. My wife explained to me what certain cantonese phrases meant and as she did so, i heard a "SHHHHHHHHHH!" loudly from the couple seated to our left. I hadn't realized that we were speaking loudly but that seemed to be the case with the couple. After a while, the couple moved a few rows in front (the cinema was lightly seated) but not before the man complained loudly: "it's as if they bought the whole cinema!" After that i only spoke to my wife in hushed tones and kept all my replies to her in minimalist-fashion like. But we were exonerated of our crimes as another group of movie-goers to the right of us spoke just as loud and sometimes you could hear their cellphones ringing too. I noticed that when the movie ended and the lights were on, the complaining couple walked off very quickly. Maybe they were disgusted with us or they were fearful of further conflict?
