Sofa Cinema Again: Another B & W Classic

Enchanting and entertaining. Image from HERE.

I was tired and forgot to post even four words here last night.

Before joining my Saturday morning support group, a sofa report.

We rented "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir," from 1947, starring Gene Tierney and a dark, brooding, sexy Rex Harrison. On the sea in England, early 1900s. 

When I was in Vesta Chocolate last month, one of Julia’s loyal customers told me I had to see this, since she loves the sea coast and is eager to visit Maine. (We were talking about Maine, that’s how we arrived there. The Hope Lange TV series--inspired by the movie--was set in Maine.)

Skip arrived back for the weekend, was up in Fig’s old attic room/Dan’s new office trying on Fig wig and long white gown. The living room was a good place, with Buttercup and Sugar.

I was too tired to watch the whole thing but gee, handsome, biting, amusing sea captain and beautiful young widow...and Natalie Wood as the little girl. (Update: Dan told me Saturday morning that the ending was great, so we both watched it from my stopping point to the end. It WAS great.)

I want to watch the TV series next.

Happy Weekend.
