Movie - "Absolutely Fabulous"



Last weekend, I went to see the crazy ladies from “Absolutely Fabulous” at the cinema.

When the movie opened, I was charmed by Edina’s Edwardian-like, big hat with ostrich feathers. When she tumbled out of the car backwards and landed on the ground, I was cast back to the 1990’s world of television’s eccentric Brit fashionistas.

As a fan of Ab Fab, the movie succeeded in revisiting the 90's world of PR for pop stars, supermodels and high fashion. Maybe 60 famous people played cameo roles in the movie. My companion asked me what PR (Public Relations) stood for. A social media account manager might be the 21st Century’s PR person.

Edina & Patsy - Finest Television Moments



The movie served up the chaos that Ab Fab is known for.
Feminine humor. Edina and Patsy enjoy laughing at themselves as much as anyone else.
Getting old is bad, but these 2 ladies are not boring old farts.
Getting fatter is badder.
And a friendship between two characters that lives on and on…despite children, mothers, men, a shortage of money and jobs.

So what comes next for Edina & Patsy besides being “trollyed on twitter”?
Ab Fab in the 21st Century?
Yes please!

The Movie Synopsis…


Appropriate for their big screen debut, Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone (Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley) are still oozing glitz and glamour, living the high life they are accustomed to; shopping, drinking and clubbing their way around London’s trendiest hotspots. But when they accidentally push Kate Moss into the river Thames at an uber fashionable launch party, Eddy and Patsy become entangled in a media storm surrounding the supermodel’s untimely demise and are relentlessly pursued by the paparazzi. Fleeing penniless to the glamorous playground of the super-rich, the French Riviera, they hatch a plan to make their escape permanent and live the high life forever more!
