In early 1900s England, a young widow, Lucy Muir (Gene Tierney), moves to the seaside village of Whitecliff and into Gull Cottage with her daughter Anna (Natalie Wood) and her maid Martha (Edna Best), despite the fierce disapproval of her mother- and sister-in-law. She rents the house despite discovering that the house is haunted.
IMDB Rating: 7.8/10
On the first night, she is visited by the ghostly apparition of the former owner, a roguish, but harmless sea captain named Daniel Gregg (Rex Harrison), who reluctantly promises to make himself known only to her; Anna is too young for ghosts. When Lucy's investment income dries up, he dictates to her his memoirs, entitled Blood and Swash. His racy recollections make the book a bestseller, allowing Lucy to stay in the house. During the course of writing the book, they fall in love, but as both realise it is a hopeless situation, Daniel tells her she should find a real (live) man.
When she visits the publisher in London she becomes attracted to suave Miles Fairley (George Sanders), a writer of children's stories known as "Uncle Neddy" who helps her obtain an interview. Despite a rocky beginning, the publisher agrees to publish the captain's book. Fairley follows her back to Whitecliff and begins a whirlwind courtship. Captain Gregg, initially jealous of their relationship, decides finally to disappear and cease being an obstacle to her happiness. He convinces her that he was all a dream whilst she sleeps.
Shortly thereafter while visiting her publisher in London, Lucy pays a surprise visit to Fairley's home and discovers that not only is Miles already married with two children, but that this sort of thing has happened before with other women. Lucy leaves heartbroken and returns to spend the rest of her life as a single woman in Gull Cottage with Martha to look after her.
About ten years later, Anna (Vanessa Brown) returns with her Navy lieutenant fiancé and tells her mother that she knew about Captain Gregg and Miles Fairley all the time, rekindling faint memories in her mother of the captain (it is also revealed that Fairley has become fat and bald and that his wife and children finally left him). Lucy spends a long peaceful life at the cottage. Captain Gregg appears before her at the moment of her death – reaching out, he lifts her young spirit free of her body. The two walk out of the front door arm in arm, into the mist.
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947) is a romantic fantasy film starring Gene Tierney and Rex Harrison. It is based on a 1945 novel written by Josephine Leslie under the pseudonym of R. A. Dick. In 1945, 20th Century Fox bought the film rights to the novel, which had been published only in the United Kingdom at that time. It was shot entirely in California.
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir Blu-ray, Special Features and Extras
• Commentary by Greg Kimble and Christopher Husted. This is a fascinating commentary which draws upon its participants' expertise in the music of Bernard Herrmann and visual effects.
• Commentary by Jeanine Basinger and Kenneth Geist. Basinger is a film professor and Geist is a Mankiewicz biographer. This commentary is a bit more anecdotal (and Basinger probably provided my wife with the grist for her joke mentioned above), but there's a lot of really interesting information imparted by both of these folks about the film and its principal cast and crew.
• Theatrical Trailer (480i; 2:39)
Overall Score and Recommendation
If you've never seen The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, you're in for one of the prime treats of your film experience. Even if the thought of muddling through a romance between a ghost and a headstrong widow gives you the shivers, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir will win you over with its deft mix of humor, heart and chutzpah. The film features pitch perfect performances by Tierney and Harrison, along with great supporting turns by George Sanders and a handful of fantastic character actors (including a tot sized Natalie Wood in what is a glorified cameo as Lucy's young daughter). Brilliantly written by Philip Dunne (who never beats the audience over the head with either whimsy or pathos), and effortlessly directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, the film is incredibly touching and heartfelt. This Blu-ray sports excellent video and audio and its commentaries are superb. Highly recommended.
