The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947) Synopsis

Living in a haunted house by the sea is a less frightening prospect for Lucy Muir (Gene Tierney), a young widow with a small daughter, than continuing to live with her in-laws. At first Captain Daniel Gregg (Sir Rex Harrison) plays the same tricks on Lucy he used to get rid of previous tenants. This ghost, who loves solitude, soon comes to admire her spunk and, to make it possible for her to afford to stay in the house, decides she'll write a best-seller, his memoirs. When Lucy visits a London publisher, she also impresses a famous children's-book author, Miles Fairley (George Sanders). Can a ghost be jealous?—Dale O'Connor
