The best of 2011…at least as of early April
Frankly My Dear - Orlando SentinelMovie attendance is down. Way down. And with the movies out in the early months of 2011, that should be no surprise. The major Oscar nominees did well, most of them, by sticking around when in other years bigger hits would have moved in and shoved them... -
