Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Thanks for the memories!
As Good As It Gets
Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
I have seen this film a couple of times and found it a beautifully produced and insightful film. Wendy Hiller and Hannah Gordon are excellent as two courageous Edwardian scholars clashing with the closed, male dominated academic world of Oxford in 1901. Determined to tell the world of their strange paranormal experience at Versailles even if it means jeopardizing their credibility as scholars (albeit women scholars!). Authentic period detail, combined with sensitive performances, make the film a rare gem. The 'ghostly' subject matter is very effectively presented and leaves a lasting impression on the viewer. The great Dame Wendy is at her best!
I saw this film and absolutely loved it!! I am a great fan of the stunning actress Hannah Gordon and the reason I bought the film was because she was in it. Dame Wendy Hiller was also fantastic and some of her remarks in the film were light-hearted and so this gave her character a different side to what we first see. Hannah Gordon never ceases to be wonderful and I think that both actresses should have got an award for such a brilliant masterpiece!!
This is the finest presentation of paranormal experience on film. This could happen to you or to me and the film makes you know it! Wendy Hiller is an outstanding actress and totally believable in this role. I am shocked that it is out on DVD as well as VHS. Now if we could just convince someone to put the 1963 Haunting out on DVD.
Just another marvel, featuring brilliant Hannah Gordon (see Day After The Fair) and the towering English actress, Dame Wendy Hiller, on an excursion in Versailles...and in time.
