It’s about the wife of a university research scientist who believes that a ghost haunts her lakeside Vermont home.
It stars Michelle Pfeiffer, and she is on screen for 98-percent of the film.
She was at her most beautiful at the time and I love being told the story from her viewpoint. Granted, it is a fantasy, but she is effervescent.
Every time I worry that I am not feminine enough, I watch Michelle at her most beautiful and most realistic. She is so pretty but also so natural. I love her in her cute little sandals early in the film, and delight in the seance she and her best friend try to do to call up the spirit.
Later, when she realizes that her neighbor did not kill his wife, she tries to piece together who is trying to contact her. I won't ruin the ending, but when she realizes that someone is not being honest with her, she uses a lock of hair as an instigator of sexual exploits.
She is such a real woman in the movie, that I delight in watching her, repeatedly.
