A Ghost Story

[edit]

Does the film center around her husband who is killed in a car crash, in front of their house and later that day he returns home from the morgue 👻 draped in a white sheet with round eye holes slowly walking around a young, devastated widow at home trying hard to deal with the sudden lost of her husband by leaving a small note inside a small wooden crack in the house while her husband-the-ghost silently talks to another 👻 who looks out a window at a house next door, make way for a ghostly union marked the two sheets lying flat on the floor?

I don't understand what you are asking, but you can read about the movie plot at Ghost_(1990_film) RudolfRed (talk) 02:13, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think the OP is asking about A Ghost Story, which they could read and see if it answers their question(s). ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots03:00, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I opine that it's like knowing where's the good vibrations, sweet sensations? Was it before she found him dead in his car? Was it there on the fiery wall at the hospital? Was it the day his ghost opened the front door? Was it the gleaning companionship between two ghosts? In my opinion, these type of questions may stem from a threshold, a train of thought between life and perhaps death as portrayed in Hollywood. Afrazer123 (talk) 04:43, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome to your opinions, but this is not a place to discussion opinions. The film is fiction, so if the answer is not in the film there is no answer. Shantavira|feed me 08:37, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But what is the question? As the plot is described in A Ghost Story § Plot, the deceased husband, C, is the protagonist, and there is no "ghostly union".  --Lambiam 07:50, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Everyday Readers

[edit]

Where can I watch the 1998 film titled Everyday Readers Starring Peter Sallis. Matthew John Drummond (talk) 16:35, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is that a documentary? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots22:11, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Appears to be, though the reference in Sallis's article needs refinement. Currently reference [9] covers about 130(!) separate citations, linked to an overall search for Peter Sallis on the BFI website; the actual film entry requires a further search there, that yields this. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 94.1.211.211 (talk) 08:19, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
