Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

jbeck03 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!

annev I'm not a big fan of paranormal stories, but this is different. Not just because Hannah Gordon manages to astonish me once again. She is absolutely brilliant in this interesting historic scenario, and next to Dame Wendy Hiller, they put together a masterpiece. The two women, as different as they are, make a very intreaging couple, given the time the story is taking place - and an interesting portrait of women a hundred years ago in britain. I just love that speech Gordon makes to the students in the end - she is indeed better than the lot of them put together - that goes for Hannah Gordon as well as the character she plays. Wendy Hiller's mimic is absolutely excellent too.

lilmonkey17 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!!

HERMIT-8 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.
