  1. This is the kind of movie that'd be shown on TCM. It's like a gender reversal of The Ghost & Mrs Muir that starred Rex Harrison as Capt Gregg & Gene Tierney as Mrs Muir. A very heartwarming story 2 say the least. I love the way the storm, thru special effects, was made 2 look sort of greenish, if anyone noticed & how, at the very end of the movie, the girls looking & Jennie…..in technicolor…..sort of like The Wizard of Oz when Dorothy's house crash landed…..B & W 2 technicolor.😊

  2. The music and the silk scarf remind me of the ballet l’apres-midi d’un faune which I saw in 1979 at Covent Garden with Nureyev and Fonteyn playing the title roles.

  3. One of my most favorite movies growing up I know I've seen it more than a dozen times but I never Tire of it I'm so lucky to have grown up as a child with this kind of magic in my heart

  4. The song Jenny sings at the beginning is exactly like Bjork, the Icelandic singer. I reckon she nicked the image for her entire persona. The other item of note is the term "Muriel" to denote "Mural" through an affectionate image of the simple yet uninformed which was used extensively by Coronation Street, a long running soap in the UK,. I haven't watched the end yet, but I already know who Jennie is, no spoilers 🙂

  5. Jennifer Jones made this film. She was absolutely mesmerizing in it. Wished she ended her career on a high note. Her last two movies had her character falling to their deaths.
