AITAH Movie Talker tells me to F*** Off

Me and my friend went to see a 3 hour movie and right from the beginning there is another old couple talking. Every minute they're saying something and I know this is a long movie so about 10 mins in, I go over and say "Stop talking during the movie, please." I said this so quiet the woman doesn't understand and asks me to repeat so I do. She stares in disbelief as her husband throws up a hand and a smile as if to say Sorry.

They still occasionally talk to each other throughout the rest of the movie but much more infrequently, so I leave it alone.

At the end as we're all leaving she stops me to say, "I think you came over too quickly to tell us to stop talking."

Then she starts trying to explain but I interrupted to say "But you kept talking the entire first 10 minutes of the movie."

She gets flustered and yells "Let me finish!" She points to her husband and starts describing his hearing impairment.

I say "That's still no excuse to be talking throughout the movie. You can go in the balcony or something." (this movie theater is an old stage and has a balcony)

She gets even angrier and defends how she needs to relay dialogue her husband can't pick up and she's trying to be quiet.

I tell her she's still disturbing other people when she talks continuously in the theater.

She yells "Oh you're so sanctimonious! F>!uck!< off!"

I do and leave.

Not sure how to mark that this isn't A.I. so here's a bnuch of misspelled wordss.
