Memo to Reese & Jake: Grow Up!
Few things are more distracting to a moviegoer or theatergoer than having someone sitting near you texting away during a screening or a performance. The self-importance of these people is absolutely maddening. According to the New York Post, the latest example of such public rudeness comes courtesy of Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon. “An audience member at the Sunday matinee of Broadway’s ‘August: Osage County’ looked on in shock as the usually cuddly couple kept their heads down ‘texting on their BlackBerrys the entire time.’ It was probably good they snuck out at intermission — we’re told the other Broadway theatergoers were ‘much more interested in watching them than the stage.'”
