There are few things more lovely than a well-filmed black and white movie from earlier days. Just story, people, and sets. The clothes, the house, the furniture, and the beautiful voice of James Mason and a picture of a life in other days come together to make art. I'll take a movie like this over any new CGI excessive sense onslaught. Thank you for this film.
... James Mason was Born In Huddersfield in the County of West Yorkshire in the North of England 🏴.. his real Accent was " EEH BAH GUM LAD PUT WOOD INT 'OYL..."
While I was watching this, I wondered how they were going to sustain the tension and resolve it at the end...I've seen other 'ghost stories' only to experience a sense of letdown or disappointment at the end. NOT the case with this one!! They couldn't touch a story like this today with a 10-foot pole, and if they tried to remake it, it would be a flop. Artistry and talent are no longer synonymous with movies anymore, sadly. Thank you so much for showing this movie!! It was completely new to me, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I know I'll be watching it again!
Oh mine, those beautiful classic decor, sweet sentiments, quality solid wood crafted furniture!!!! And that house was so grand!!! The stair case just breath taking!!! Love it all!!
@@Mister_Listenerthey all were! The father was very believable as well. Robert is actually in the greatest movie ever made “Kind Hearts and Coronets” easily the best film of the 40’s and a British national treasure. Back to the acting: does anyone notice how the head lady’s maid is heavy handed on the servant because the servant is a little flirty? There are actually a lot of details in this movie. Can benefit from multiple viewings and not get old!
Understated, but riveting! This movie proves that a good ghost movie doesn't need sudden shocks, gore or horrific special effects. What I like about a ghost story is the poignant history behind the haunting.
I don't know how you liked it. It starts off with the acting going in the background - people talking and no music for the beginning and then when it goes to acting itself it is all out of sync. The wrong people talking at the wrong time. You get a woman's voice talking to another woman in the sound and a man talking to woman on the screen - that sort of thing. Very confusing.
@@gloriahanes5338 My dear, I am 61 years old! I'm talking about the uploader not getting the synching right. Nothing to do with the actual movie and how it was produced, because I presume it was correct on a DVD when it was uploaded to youtube, or that it was recorded correctly from a TV but the recording went wrong in the uploading onto youtube. I just started it again at the very beginning and THIS TIME the music started up and it seems to be in synch. At the time of my comment, I could not get the synching right. The movie started with conversation, not music and the whole way through the sounds were all over the place and the lip movements weren't correct. I clicked in different parts of the movie with the same issue all the way through. Now it is working. That's technology for you! I will have a good look at the movie when I get some time.
Never underestimated power of music. Middle of the night. Sleeping house. Lonely house. The dissonance. Everything looks so calm and yet, there is a presence almost palpable in the air. The movement of the nightgown, as if someone just rushed by... I believe!😮😢
Some of my favorite special effects come from this era. I still can't figure out how some of them were done. But that's besides your point, and I agree!
Absolutely about Netflix. I ca canceled and subscribed to no ads youtube! Best deal around! Thank you much giving us classic movies. We step into a time machine and live and experience all from an age past! Awesome!
I love me some old-time atmospheric black-and-white horror! So glad I found this treasure trove of classic British films. Dennis Price cuts a suave and elegant figure as the love interest. Kind Hearts and Coronets, his delicious walk on the dark side, was still a few years in the future.
A great reminder that acting, lighting, simple practical effects, and camera work, can impart more impact on the viewer than any amount of CGI ever can.
All this garbage reality TV has taken away from the true art of acting!!! They sure don't have talented beyond belief actors today like they did back then!! Wonderful movie, thank you for the upload ❤️
4:39 to 5:00; It’s so good to see a husband taking care of his wife. This is what provide and protect means… Provide an ear to listen and a shoulder to lean on, and protect her from her fears and the feeling of not being listened to
Ladies who besides myself are in awe of the hair styles... femininity and fashion of those days?! Omg! ... Great acting too... I give this movie ten **********'s... Spot On! Jolly well done! AMEN?!
James Mason has to be among my favourite all time actors. A true British gentleman. Nothing like chilling out to a good old black and white film on a Sunday. There’s something about black and white, shadows and recesses always look that much more suspicious and foreboding. And it’s also such an absolute joy trying to work out what colours are used on the stage sets and the stunningly flawless costume the actors wear. Thank you so much for the upload of this wonderful film. ❤️🇬🇧

@@one4allfour1 Years ago, I tried to get a copy of either the VHS version or the DVD version, and discovered it wasn't available on either format. Turner Classic Movies said there was a problem with the heirs who owned the rights to the film. At some point, the issue was resolved, and the film was released on both VHS and DVD. Then streaming took over and once again, the film is almost impossible to find. If enough people request the film, it will show there's enough interest to generate revenue for the advertisers. Keep asking, and eventually, someone will find a way to stream it.
I loved that one as well. It was one of my late mother's favorite when she saw it as a teen. This movie is good, the first scene with the speaking tube is very memorable.
The Uninvited IMO is the best ghost story ever put on film. The atmosphere is so thick you could cut it with a knife and the scene of Milland and Hussey holding the candelabra by the upstairs railing in the middle of the night, listening to Mary Meredith crying somewhere off in the house makes my hair stand on-end just thinking about it.
Luv ❤️ black and whites honestly it's hard to return to this modern age after seeing beautiful peaceful movies. No hustle bustle, just peace the era was just nice.
THAT used to be the under current of a lot of films. WE NEED TO ADD THAT BACK. It's powerful and could help shift us all back to real consideration for others.
@brendasavini7786 I agree with you regarding consideration and respect toward others…I’d love to see more of those character qualities in today’s films, as well👍🏼
A charming well told story. Wonderful cast and characters that populate this film. A fun treat to see James Mason in a very different role. Thank you for the film!🙂
Whoever put this charming house/home together to look as warm and inviting as this one, truly knew what they were doing. Did they look at old photos, I wonder? I can imagine they did. Anyway, today's films lack this kind of character. James Mason, what a character he was. Always a man of integrity, so it would seem. There's no way he could play some plain Joe. Such a delight watching him. So refreshing to watch this kind of old haunted ghost story. Even though this was a ghost story, it wasn't vulgar or even too scary. NO one getting their neck bitten (vampires) or, someone being slashed to pieces. This is the kind of ghost story I like to watch. Absolutely great actors. Suburb acting. Well done.
Some of the country's larger houses may still be like that house in the film. Not necessarily all the rooms but many may be. Some open to the public at some time each year so the period pieces are maintained in significant rooms or areas.
@@MikeGreenwood51Many of the old houses in the UK, owned and open to the public by the National Trust, still look this way. My family and I have visited many, over the years.
In my opinion the classic ghost story is.... is there a ghost?, the climax of the story builds and at the end of the movie, yes maybe there was not a ghost, but then there was something. Excellent movie, a classic!
This was a nice movie. It is nice that Elizabeth finally received peace. When Dr. Marsham died, I believe Elizabeth and the doctor met up with each other. It was nice hearing that the Abbotts, the caretakers or guardians, drowned in the Atlantic Ocean. Now, everyone can live happily ever after!!!
Thank you so much for providing! Some of my fondest memories were in the 70s. My sister who was 10 years older than me would cook biscuits on Sunday and we would eat them with honey and watch a movie like this!
TY for a wonderful, vintage ghost movie. James Mason plays the lovable, grumpy husband, & hardly recognizable except for his distinct voice. Script reads almost like a play, I wonder if was on Broadway before becomming this charming movie.
I watched this movie twice. A fantastic film. Could not get enough of James Mason's voice. He is such a prolific actor. Playing an elderly man so well. The entire cast was spot on.
Such a wonderful movie... a joy to watch. James Mason was wonderful, as was the rest of the excellent cast. And a truly heart felt ending... just loved it!
What fun to watch James Mason playing an elderly man when he was actually quite young! He is one of my favorites. I had never seen this film. Thank you!!
+Lily Marie He did do a really good job as a creaky-old man ;-) I love that it always looked like his clothes were just a mite too big on him...like he was trying to wear his Dad's clothes. Pretty adorable. And you're so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed this, Lily Marie!
James Mason was quite believable in this role! Wish he were still alive so I could tell him how much I enjoyed his portrayal while still young... It was a prediction of his artistry of his profession and craft that he went on to entertain us with over the years. Maybe in keeping with the theme of this film that he can sense our praise from another "world"! Thank you for sharing this, I never heard of it. 🧓🙏🌌🇺🇸🎥🎭
At long last… a gothic ghost story, with a happy ending!! Lovely and talented cast… I shall watch it again, many times! Thank you for this! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 P.S… btw! What was the name of this lost jewel of a film?
Delightful! However, one odd thing I noticed. Nearly 40 years after appearing in this movie , James Mason appeared in the film “Salem’s Lot “. He was a protector of the villainous vampire, named Mr. Barlow. The police inspector in this film that Mason’s character had dealt with was named…Barlow…
Thank you for this movie 🎬. When I was a little girl and especially not feeling well, my mom and I wood cuddle up on the sofa and find an " old" movie for me to watch. I loved every part of them, especially the dresses. As I got into my teens, I was able to raid my mom's old cedar chest and wore her clothes from the mid 30's to mid 40's! After all these years people still remember me for my " bohemian" style of dress when it was actually just my mom's clothes and not very many bell bottom pants that was the style in my teenage years.
Such a beautiful movie. So lovely in every aspect. A much more noble, innocent, and heart-warming time. Hidden away deep in the heart of man, now. Yet, one day to be reborn. God speed that day!
Those old Gainsborough studio films sure take me back, thank you 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊 Fantastic cast here too! 😊😊👍👍 As well as the great James Mason, the so very beautiful Margaret Lockwood in her gorgeous prime ….and…a youthful Dennis Price trim and slim at the beginning of his brilliant career too 😊😊😊
"Shall we leave the gentlemen?" And I started 🤣... Times have changed with more than just fluffy yards of dress & feathery hats: indeed-INDEED. These black and white glimpses of the past are a gas- gotta love em! Thanks for the upload.
@@garryferrington811 A lot were found in Europe. The ending was found to the bit of Buster doing a high dive and hitting the side of the pool, and making a deep hole, disappearing It was lost for years, then the print was found. It showed him crawling out of the hole years later, pool long deserted and him having a Chinese wife and multiple kids.
What a great old movie! I guessed that it might be one of those silly movies where the ghosts appear & you hear their hollow voices in the background! I was so pleasantly surprised. Wonderful acting by all, especially the "companion," nkt sure of her name. Thank you so much for this very well-made movie! I loved it!
Nothing like seeing the great Ernest Thesiger play a romantic hero as Dr. Marsham! I'd only ever seen him camping it up with gusto in The Bride of Frankenstein.
What a gem! The movie kept getting better as it went, and more engrossing. I've watched a number of "haunted house" movies, mostly to be disappointed. This one didn't. Try and come up with something this good today Hollywood, and do it with the budget limits that this one had. I was so attached at the end I burned a cheese sandwich on the stove! Forgot all about it. Thanks for putting this on.
thank you for sharing I could understand you getting distracted from cooking!! Hollywood has gone downhill for years!! They NEED to take notes on this film and so many old films for improvements!!!!
“..Ernest Thesiger contrives in something under two minutes to give a performance that is masterly.” Line from review of A Place of One’s Own. The Tatler and Bystander, May 16, 1945 Thank you so much for this great film. Mr. Thesiger was an Edwardian stage actor. I was only privileged with seeing his wonderful characterizations in films. Most of them were eccentrics like the Undertaker in Sim's Scrooge or Horace Fem in The Old Dark House. He was marvelous in all. However, this is the only romantic lead type I've ever seen him portray. Splendid. It made me cry.
Not only his performance, but the way the director chose to shoot his scene was brilliant. Another thing to note is how his character was the exact opposite in every aspect of the doctor who arrived from London. That was also a brilliant bit of directing, and very well played.
@@WaterShowsProd I agree! The long take up the stairs was awesome. Dr. Marsham doesn't look for someone to wait upon him or show him where to go, he knows. It gives it away a bit and yet we knew he was in the house before. Wonderful ending. The way they disguised Mr. Thesiger using a veil over the lense and filming in silhouette and from the back, the legerdemain of this really amazed me. Mr. Thesiger was Dr. Marsham. I have since watched every Thesiger performance I could find and have yet to find an equal to this one.
+Ellen-Cathryn Nash Yay! I'm glad I was able to upload this for you to watch :) It is a good movie; the actors and actresses are some of my favorites, too. I've always liked James Mason. I think he did a good job playing an old man, since he was much younger than the character. I loved the way he walked---creaky (creakily?), the way my husband does ;-D
This was wonderful! James Mason, one of my favorite actors, playing a part so unlike the ones I have seen him play over the years. I loved it!! Thank you!
Terrific haunted house movie. I waited 80 minutes for Ernest Thesiger to show up, the Dr Pretorius fro "Bride of Frankenstein". Sadly the great hero of James Whale movies was sillhouted, understated, and had but afew lines. To see him in full hilarity and terror check out another ghost movie classic "The Old Dark House" where he plays the inforgettable Roderick Femm,eater of scenery and potatoes.
One of the funniest movies ever made! (James Whale's sense of humor.) It was lost, but someone put it back together from various bits in a Universal vault.
I thought I'd seen every classic here, but lucky me! I'm halfway through and I can already tell this will be one of my favorites. Such a great movie to grab a blanket and some snacks and enjoy. Thanks for posting!
James mason is so great in this movie! I didn,t know what a wonderful character actor he was. He could carry the whole movie and it got a lot better when he took control and started to carry on the investigating. Like Oliver's character in "sleuth". His unmistakable voice is always a treat. Of course the part with Dr. Marshim is so creepy, you know he,s dead; but the ending is a let down. All the suspense for nothing-like most books and mysteries. But then, how else could it have been all pulled together? Well, a pleasure, anyways.
In this day and age when its fashionable to run down the English , particularly the middle classes and the British Empire. Its becomes more important to realize that many of those we hold dear and with high esteem are from those elements of society. Mason the son of a well to do Yorkshire business family. Lockwood , born in India where her father was a Railway official. Dulcie Gray the maid .born in Malaya where her father ran a plantation. Dennis Price from a family with aristocratic connections . Mullen born in the US of A .That's what I call an interesting cast .
Wow. I'm stunned. Imagine that! A really enjoyable movie start to finish and not a drop.of blood or one single cussword! These movies are the best thank you 😊
I am loving how what happened between the priest and Annette was kept private, no sensationalism here, too classy of a movie. I loved it a lot! I need to find more.
I love haunted house movies even crime drama or comedy. I always thought" well we can push all these chairs and couches to the middle of the room and stay the night in the middle of it all".

Black and white is best for any ghost story. Full color is anti-ghost!

Thank you so much for providing! Some of my fondest memories were in the 70s. My sister who was 10 years older than me would cook biscuits on Sunday and we would eat them with honey and watch a movie like this!
How sweet! Thank you for sharing your happy memory :))
TY for a wonderful, vintage ghost movie. James Mason plays the lovable, grumpy husband, & hardly recognizable except for his distinct voice. Script reads almost like a play, I wonder if was on Broadway before becomming this charming movie.
So glad you enjoyed this Classic, Ree!
I watched this movie twice. A fantastic film. Could not get enough of James Mason's voice. He is such a prolific actor. Playing an elderly man so well. The entire cast was spot on.
That was a humdinger! Absolutely a joy.
I love the way they rally together
James Mason has been one of my favorite actors. He was absolutely brilliant in Journey to the Center of the Earth.
He was great in "The Shooting Party" in his old age.
I love black and white classic movies. Moral and culture values plays an important part in all these movies. ❤❤❤
Such a wonderful movie... a joy to watch. James Mason was wonderful, as was the rest of the excellent cast. And a truly heart felt ending... just loved it!
What a lovely old film. 😀 Great characters. Uplifting themes. This is what the entertainment industry can no longer deliver.
What fun to watch James Mason playing an elderly man when he was actually quite young! He is one of my favorites. I had never seen this film. Thank you!!
+Lily Marie He did do a really good job as a creaky-old man ;-) I love that it always looked like his clothes were just a mite too big on him...like he was trying to wear his Dad's clothes. Pretty adorable. And you're so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed this, Lily Marie!
I thought he looked a little out of place lol, some of his make up looked off. Now I know why. And also who James mason is.
James Mason was quite believable in this role! Wish he were still alive so I could tell him how much I enjoyed his portrayal while still young...
It was a prediction of his artistry of his profession and craft that he went on to entertain us with over the years.
Maybe in keeping with the theme of this film that he can sense our praise from another "world"!
Thank you for sharing this, I never heard of it. 🧓🙏🌌🇺🇸🎥🎭
Hey 744o'clock
At long last… a gothic ghost story, with a happy ending!! Lovely and talented cast… I shall watch it again, many times! Thank you for this! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
P.S… btw! What was the name of this lost jewel of a film?
Delightful! However, one odd thing I noticed.
Nearly 40 years after appearing in this movie , James Mason appeared in the film “Salem’s Lot “. He was a protector of the villainous vampire, named Mr. Barlow.
The police inspector in this film that Mason’s character had dealt with was named…Barlow…
Good looking out! I never realized that!
Wow
I was just watching Salem's Lot last night. Barlow and Straker terrify me just like they did when I was a kid. What an amazing coincidence!
Interesting!
"Salem's Lot" scared the daylights out of me. That movie is truly terrifying.
*A decent ghost story that I had never seen before.*
Margret Lockwood so amazing she was.
She was Timmy‘s mother in the TV show Lassie.
Thank you for this movie 🎬. When I was a little girl and especially not feeling well, my mom and I wood cuddle up on the sofa and find an " old" movie for me to watch. I loved every part of them, especially the dresses. As I got into my teens, I was able to raid my mom's old cedar chest and wore her clothes from the mid 30's to mid 40's!
After all these years people still remember me for my " bohemian" style of dress when it was actually just my mom's clothes and not very many bell bottom pants that was the style in my teenage years.
A wonderful movie. Just the right amount of spooky and played well by these great old names of Hollywood
This is England. Hollywood is in the United States. England makes movies, too.
@@garryferrington811 i know but they both worked as hollywood actors, whether happy of not that was my reference, no the location of the film :)
This is a true classic!
Terrific film, and James Mason? He’s terrific too. Oh and all the other actors. ❤️
Such a beautiful movie. So lovely in every aspect. A much more noble, innocent, and heart-warming time. Hidden away deep in the heart of man, now. Yet, one day to be reborn. God speed that day!
Those old Gainsborough studio films sure take me back, thank you 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊 Fantastic cast here too! 😊😊👍👍 As well as the great James Mason, the so very beautiful Margaret Lockwood in her gorgeous prime ….and…a youthful Dennis Price trim and slim at the beginning of his brilliant career too 😊😊😊
I saw this about this about 30 years ago and I still love it. Unusual to see the wonderful James Mason playing a nice guy
"Shall we leave the gentlemen?" And I started 🤣... Times have changed with more than just fluffy yards of dress & feathery hats: indeed-INDEED.
These black and white glimpses of the past are a gas- gotta love em!
Thanks for the upload.
I really, really like James Mason, even had a sort of crush on him when he was younger! LOL
I love the old Brit movies!🥰
The Uninvited was also a good one, love the old movies
James Mason bought Buster Keaton's old house and found his films in a vault, just another thing to love about him.
Many of them were the only surviving prints.
@@garryferrington811 A lot were found in Europe. The ending was found to the bit of Buster doing a high dive and hitting the side of the pool, and making a deep hole, disappearing It was lost for years, then the print was found. It showed him crawling out of the hole years later, pool long deserted and him having a Chinese wife and multiple kids.
What a great old movie! I guessed that it might be one of those silly movies where the ghosts appear & you hear their hollow voices in the background! I was so pleasantly surprised. Wonderful acting by all, especially the "companion," nkt sure of her name. Thank you so much for this very well-made movie! I loved it!
Nothing like seeing the great Ernest Thesiger play a romantic hero as Dr. Marsham! I'd only ever seen him camping it up with gusto in The Bride of Frankenstein.
What a cute and charming movie. I enjoyed it tremendously. Thank you for uploading and sharing it. It made me smile.
James Mason could do it all!!👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼❤️
What a gem! The movie kept getting better as it went, and more engrossing. I've watched a number of "haunted house" movies, mostly to be disappointed. This one didn't. Try and come up with something this good today Hollywood, and do it with the budget limits that this one had. I was so attached at the end I burned a cheese sandwich on the stove! Forgot all about it. Thanks for putting this on.
thank you for sharing I could understand you getting distracted from cooking!! Hollywood has gone downhill for years!! They NEED to take notes on this film and so many old films for improvements!!!!
What a lovely movie. I've not heard of it. Thank you for posting, it was totally enjoyable.
“..Ernest Thesiger contrives in something under two minutes to give a performance that is masterly.” Line from review of A Place of One’s Own. The Tatler and Bystander, May 16, 1945 Thank you so much for this great film. Mr. Thesiger was an Edwardian stage actor. I was only privileged with seeing his wonderful characterizations in films. Most of them were eccentrics like the Undertaker in Sim's Scrooge or Horace Fem in The Old Dark House. He was marvelous in all. However, this is the only romantic lead type I've ever seen him portray. Splendid. It made me cry.
I’m so glad you enjoyed this film! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us :D
Not only his performance, but the way the director chose to shoot his scene was brilliant. Another thing to note is how his character was the exact opposite in every aspect of the doctor who arrived from London. That was also a brilliant bit of directing, and very well played.
@@WaterShowsProd I agree! The long take up the stairs was awesome. Dr. Marsham doesn't look for someone to wait upon him or show him where to go, he knows. It gives it away a bit and yet we knew he was in the house before. Wonderful ending. The way they disguised Mr. Thesiger using a veil over the lense and filming in silhouette and from the back, the legerdemain of this really amazed me. Mr. Thesiger was Dr. Marsham. I have since watched every Thesiger performance I could find and have yet to find an equal to this one.
@@MinorKeyDancing Yes. It is wonderful to see him underplay, yet still be as mysterious ever. I've never seen him play a part like this before either.
that car drives like a lawn mower, and he is asking if the pace is too much for her...hahah! 8 miles per hour ! and love over a steering wheel....😂
I am a huge fan of both Margaret Lockwood and James Mason. A Place of One's Own is one of my faves. Thanks for this.
+Ellen-Cathryn Nash Yay! I'm glad I was able to upload this for you to watch :) It is a good movie; the actors and actresses are some of my favorites, too. I've always liked James Mason. I think he did a good job playing an old man, since he was much younger than the character. I loved the way he walked---creaky (creakily?), the way my husband does ;-D
I really like how quiet these films are. And how correct and thorough their pronunciation is. I can improve my English with this. Thank you 🙏😊!
English people don't speak this well anymore.
This was wonderful! James Mason, one of my favorite actors, playing a part so unlike the ones I have seen him play over the years. I loved it!! Thank you!
Terrific haunted house movie. I waited 80 minutes for Ernest Thesiger to show up, the Dr Pretorius fro "Bride of Frankenstein". Sadly the great hero of James Whale movies was sillhouted, understated, and had but afew lines. To see him in full hilarity and terror check out another ghost movie classic "The Old Dark House" where he plays the inforgettable Roderick Femm,eater of scenery and potatoes.
“…the eater of scenery and potatoes” 😁 ~ ruclips.net/video/5BoJo_6KPe8/видео.html
LOVE that film !😄
One of the funniest movies ever made! (James Whale's sense of humor.) It was lost, but someone put it back together from various bits in a Universal vault.
Great old movie I had never heard of.
❤️❤️❤️
GOSH...loved James Mason's acting plus his skill with words...tx for this gem...hadn't seen it before either.
I thought I'd seen every classic here, but lucky me! I'm halfway through and I can already tell this will be one of my favorites. Such a great movie to grab a blanket and some snacks and enjoy. Thanks for posting!
James Mason was absolutely superb playing that character.
James mason is so great in this movie! I didn,t know what a wonderful character actor he was. He could carry the whole movie and it got a lot better when he took control and started to carry on the investigating. Like Oliver's character in "sleuth". His unmistakable voice is always a treat. Of course the part with Dr. Marshim is so creepy, you know he,s dead; but the ending is a let down. All the suspense for nothing-like most books and mysteries. But then, how else could it have been all pulled together? Well, a pleasure, anyways.
What a great Saturday night movie. Such easy watching, they just don’t make them like this anymore.
I've never seen this before.
I really like J. Mason in this part. I knew he was young because of his hands. ❤️
Thank you for this lovely movie James Mason was a wonderful actor.💞
Great ghost story! With a lovely cast!! Thank you.
I love artfully crafted black and white films from gainesboro always a pleasure to watch over and over again 💗
Wonderful movie 🎥. I love these black and white films. Characters are awesome. Kept me connected the entire time. Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏
Dr. Marsham was Dr. Pretorius in Frankenstein. When a film with a Gainsborough portrait comes to life I know the film is going to be excellent!
I use to love watching Lassie when I was a kid.
June Lockhart? In this movie?
@@veganleigh4817 My mistake! Margaret Lockhart. I’ll have to change that. Thank you
Eine ganz wunderbare Geistergeschichte.....so ein schöner alter Film, danke fürs hochladen😊
In this day and age when its fashionable to run down the English , particularly the middle classes and the British Empire. Its becomes more important to realize that many of those we hold dear and with high esteem are from those elements of society. Mason the son of a well to do Yorkshire business family. Lockwood , born in India where her father was a Railway official. Dulcie Gray the maid .born in Malaya where her father ran a plantation. Dennis Price from a family with aristocratic connections . Mullen born in the US of A .That's what I call an interesting cast .
Wow. I'm stunned. Imagine that! A really enjoyable movie start to finish and not a drop.of blood or one single cussword! These movies are the best thank you 😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed this movie! I have many more like this on my Channel for you to watch👍🏼
Wonderful movie. I love the costumes and women's hairstyles too.
Extraordinary that James, why if it weren't for his voice, he would be almost unrecognizable, and that ending, what eerie supernatural twist! Bravo!
The sound is working perfectly now! Thanks for fixing it!!
m Lockwood is a real beauty and talented!
I am loving how what happened between the priest and Annette was kept private, no sensationalism here, too classy of a movie. I loved it a lot! I need to find more.
Hello Dear, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus??
Priest? Do you mean Dr. Marsham?
Tried watching this again and it plays beautifully. Thanks for uploading this little gem.
So glad you tried, once more!👍🏼
I love haunted house movies even crime drama or comedy. I always thought" well we can push all these chairs and couches to the middle of the room and stay the night in the middle of it all".
Fabulous Sunday afternoon film. All the actors were perfect especially Masons Leeds accent. Thank you.
Great ending! Really took me by surprise.
