Mrs. Brewingfrog and I took in the latest Downton Abbey film last night. Very, very nice. Lush photography, beautiful scenery, superb writing, just a fine experience altogether. After we got over all the wet eyes, we had to laugh at the perfection of the Big Dramatic Scene at the end, and how Dame Maggie Smith and Julian Fellows must have plotted for some time for that final line of hers!
Mrs. Brewingfrog: "Who is the guy playing the Famous Actor? He looks familiar."
Me: "Yeah, I've seen him before... It'll come to me."
Some time later: "Got him! Last seen getting his guts sliced out in 300, while the Spartan Senate hollered, 'Traitor!!!'"
Mrs. Brewingfrog: "Thanks, honey. I had almost forgotten..." If you listen, you can still hear the rumble from her eyes rolling back.
