Joseph Mankiewicz's moody classic is less
ghost
story than romantic fantasy, a handsome 1947 drama of impossible love set on the picturesque turn-of-the-century New England coast. Independent young widow Lucy
Muir
(the luminous Gene Tierney), desperate to escape her uptight in-laws, falls in love with a grand seaside house and moves in, only to discover the cantankerous ghost of the hot-tempered Captain Gregg (a histrionically flamboyant performance by Rex Harrison). Lucy refuses to let the bombastic captain frighten her away, earning his respect, his friendship, and later his love. They team up to turn the captain's salty memoirs into a bestseller, but as his affection grows he fades away, leaving Lucy free to undertake a more worldly suitor, notably a charismatic children's author (George Sanders at his smarmy smoothest) with his own guarded secret. Charles Lang's melancholy black-and-white photography and Bernard Herrmann's haunting score set the tone for this sublime adult drama, and Tierney delivers one of her most understated performances as the resolute
Mrs
. Muir. Mankiewicz turns this ghost story into a refreshingly mature and down-to-earth romance. --Sean Axmaker

The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
Put this in on a rainy day and thoroughly enjoy yourself. Sweet and tender. A classic romance. Never tire of it. Rex Harrison is a perfect sea captain.
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
I have enjoyed The
Ghost
and
Mrs
.
Muir
for many years. I never tire of watching. It transports me back to a more gentle time. I use George Sanders character's traits in one of my books. A good cup of hot tea and a quiet time of viewing this movie is an excellant way to spend an afternoon. I now own this DVD so I can watch anytime I choose which is a luxury.
Movies from Amazon.com
What is great about Amazon is the large selection of dvds and cds from around the world. When I look for movies or music, I can choose from a wide variety of prices and conditions. Sometimes I want to give a gift that is new and other times get only a disc at a very low cost for myself. There are also many choices in shipping prices and speed of delivery. Now I can afford to have a video library and get the rare music I've always wanted. It doesn't get better than this.
The Ghoast and
Mrs
.
Muir
is a wonderful adventure into the other side of life. How love endures through eternity. These are great classics that we used to have to wait years to see on tv. Not only is the story compelling but the scenic beauty of life on the coast of England is heart warming.

Wonderful Old Movie
This has been a favorite movie of mine since I first saw it on TV as a child. It still moves me to laughter and tears. The acting is old fashioned, but it seems to match the date that the film portrays.
I would recommend this to any other romantics out there.
Ghost and Mrs Muier
I have always loved this movie. It appeals to the romantic side of my life. The Captain is so funny and romantic at the same time. If you are a romantic you will love this movie.
