Fans of the movie- How old are you?


I hope I'm not coming off as creepy or anything haha. But I'm just curious. I'm 17 and I've been watching this movie over and over throughout my life. My mom introduced it to me when I was about 3 or 4 years old. It's remained one of my all time favorites. I think I've seen this movie more times than any other.

"It was so frustrating not to be able to touch them."-Why my mom cried when she saw the Beatles

I'm 25. I saw a part of the film on television a few years ago and immediatly loved it so much that I owned it two hours later.

This is not an exit.

I'm a 44 year old man. I first saw it on TV when I was about 10, and have loved it ever since!

I'm a 15 year old female. My sister is 18 and she loves this movie as well.

And to the poster that wrote about her kids watching the old movies, I know my family is exactly like that. There are four teens in my family and we all love old movies, but I would say that I myself and my eighteen year old sister I just mentioned are more into them than anyone else in the family, and this is one of our favorites. Old movies have so much atmosphere, particularily ones from the 40's, and The Ghost and Mrs. Muir is a great example of that. Other movies you'd like (if you haven't already seen them) if you like this movie:
Dragonwyck
Rebecca
The Uninvited (1944) (totally different than the movie by the same name that just came out.)

So nice to see young people appreciating these old classic films.

I'm 46 years old and first saw the movie when I was a kid. I remember seeing the T.V. series a few times growing up, but didn't pay much attention to it. This has to be one of my favorite movies. I purchased the soundtrack about 15 years ago and listen to it over and over again. I have also spent the last few years trying to get a "Ships Clock", although they're pretty expensive. I usually spend a week or so at the Central California coast with my family and always watch it when I'm there. If I had a house by the sea I would definitely call it "Gull Cottage."

I first saw this last year, I was 24. I have always liked Gene Tierney (her face is so interesting!) and Rex Harrison I knew of course from my favorite musical My Fair Lady...it's a really nice love story. I think the mystical angle is something a lot of people respond to; to know that you could love someone no matter the time or "distance" is comforting.

I need to get a copy!

I'm 24 and female. This movie is one of my favorites. I'm a big fan of classic movies. More than half of my movie collection predates the 1980's.
