  • Downton Abbey-; The Grand Finale

    Our movie group in the Santa Cruz CA area have been waiting for a long time to this new and supposedly last movie made of ' Downton Abbey'. Shown on the largest curved true scope screen in the area at the Cinelux Capitola Cinema. . Frist show was Thursday Sept 11 at 2 PM in cinema Film-Tech Forums

    Now up to the 1930's the film was well liked by all of our picky film friends. What was strange as with many movies these days some of the indoor segments were shot way to dark. The outdoor segments had great crisp bright color. At first I had thought the projector bulb was turned way to low or ready to die out. I don't recommend seeing the new 'Downtown' at a drive In.

    The music was nice but they did not use the side/back wall speakers much except in the part at the outdoor fair when a microphone had a echo effect around you and a few other surround sound segments.

    Great ending with past clips in a dream mode set up, People leave when the credits roil and they miss some great photo segments from the film.

    I bet even though they say this will the last movie from the series more will be written in the future as not everyone has left the castle and they leave you wondering what will happen in the late 30's 40's.

    The New 'Downton' 2025 movie will bring in all the older movie folks that loved the PBS TV years plus the last two cinema films. Lets hope another few movies will be made to keep this great story going.

    Haven't seen the movie, and probably won't have the time to watch it, but I did see the two
    previous ones, and enjoyed them both. My venue is having some sort of "Downton Abbey
    Dress Up Party/Screening" tonight, which involves a live host and I think there's a prize for
    the best costume(s). Fortunately, (or unfortunately, depending on you point of view) I'm
    already running two other events today, and this is the one that I'll have the least time to
    pay attention to. This is going to be a helluva week. . . I've got several simultaneous
    overlapping events that I've got to orchestrate.
