I had this on the 77Q back from IAD, it was very old school and done over the pa, suffice to say most pax carried on watching their movies. And those of us sitting backwards felt odd following along!
My flight to LHR on the 4th did use the monitors, my return on the 16th did it manual. so seems to be up to the crew but you raise a good point, with the rear facing C seats it would seem they should have to use the monitors or do something other than stand in the front of the cabin, since otherwise those rear facing folks wouldn't see the safety stuff.
