DOWNTON ABBEY – THE MOVIE – Well the peeps are split on this one. Half of us liked it a lot. Frannie and I thought it was dull and boring. In fact, Francine almost went home. Two-thirds of the film was spent with the Abbey readying itself for a Royal visit. The last third was predictable and undramatic. I’m glad I waited for cable and didn’t spend money to view this in the theatre. The only positives for me were Mary looked beautiful, her wardrobe was gorgeous and Lord Grantham got a new dog. 0 toasts, 0 boyfriends and 0 girlfriends. Cheers to the dog!
