Boy I wouldn't mind being haunted if the ghost looked like Rex Harrison!



I just love this movie - soooooo romantic....

I vaguely remember the TV series, too.

This movie is one of my favorites too. I always cry when I watch it, silly me.

I'll never forget my brother telling me about this movie. We were driving someplace and he was telling me the plot, and suddenly he was choking. I thought he was having a fit or a heart attack or something. No; it turns out he was all choked up. What a softie.

Great movie.

I looooove this movie.

And cry every darn time.

Holy Hannah, why I haven't I seen this yet? And I call myself a Gene Tierney fan. Thanks, EllenNYC, for bring it to my attention.

The score by Bernard Herrman is a luscious masterpiece. The movie's ending makes me weep sometimes.
Catie Ribbons
One of my all-time favorite movies!!! I LOVE it...and I weep at the ending EVERY time I see it.
I also remember watching the television show, when I was a wee thing.
PerfumeMe
Yep, a love that transcended time and space.

I remember the tv show as a child,it was more light hearted. Then I did see the movie which was sad.

I never saw the show (before my time), but I love the movie. It's so sweet, it captures that 'wholesome' feeling of that Hollywood era, when stories like that were considered romantic, and it didn't matter that they were believable or not, people just accepted the 'magic' and went with it. Love it. :-)
VelvetSky
Yes, that's a very sweet, romantic movie...love it! It's a wonder that Hollywood hasn't attempted a remake (maybe they will).

Love this movie & I always tear up at the end when he comes to "take her home". A classic.
Lady jicky
Oh yes what a lovely movie. When i saw it the first time when young I just had to know what a monkey puzzle tree was. I now know them and when I see them I think of this movie. They are VERY prickly!
ellennyc
Chenas, I think you are going to love this one.

As for a remake, I think Mr. Gerard Butler would be perfect as the grumpy ghost*! And it would take place in Scotland! And....I would play Mrs. Muir!

*Of course, he has already played a very famous grumpy ghost. Why are ghosts so grouchy?

Because it IS sweet.
And there's no sex.

Aw, heck...can you imagine the butcher job they would do?

My mother tells of watching "The Ghost And Mrs. Muir" on TV with me when I was around five years old. At some point I turned to her and said, "Mom, she's really pretty".

Feline and sculpted. Stunning woman.
