On top of that it was PAL which would not play on American equipment.

He continues in his attempts to find her killer although excluded from the case on the grounds of his proximity to the events surrounding it. River is told that he must undergo psychiatric evaluation, and his commanding officer makes it clear that he expects him to fail it. Meanwhile, River pursues a potential suspect who falls to his death and he is subsequently placed under increasing pressure from the media. Simultaneously, he faces demands from the mother of a missing teenager to find her daughter’s body......<br /><br />Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-21723483002595551822015-12-02T11:24:53.980-06:002015-12-02T11:24:53.980-06:00I know I Annie said it was fine but have ya'll...<br /> I know I Annie said it was fine but have ya'll noticed I am rather talkative in the last week or so..

It's on Wiki. None that I found gave a description of Sarah's ghost-vision-hallucination.<br /><br />I suspect that Twilight may be inferring that the script of TV or film allowing for ambiguity whether the ghost is real, a vision, or a hallucination. In the film, "Ghost", Patrick Swayze's character is presented to the viewer as believable and real.mike (again)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-33585400045053119672015-12-02T10:48:13.370-06:002015-12-02T10:48:13.370-06:00 hmm..

Haven't seen "Ghostbusters", but doesn't seem as though it's on the same track. Maybe Beetlejuice - but again don't recall the story well enough to decide.<br /><br />I suppose the difference is that the vision/ghost/hallucination in the two films in the post are helping, giving advice - that's their only reason for appearing - and to straighten out the mind of the person receiving them, making them understand something.<br /><br />(Hurrying...going out now - be back later).Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-89428565128833003992015-12-02T10:00:16.442-06:002015-12-02T10:00:16.442-06:00I haven't seen "River", so I'm n...I haven't seen "River", so I'm not exactly sure how you are defining: ghost, vision, hallucination. It seems that "Ghost" (Patrick Swayze) would be along the same lines, as only Demi Moore saw and conversed with Patrick; only Cosmo Topper could see and converse with the deceased; "Beetlejuice" could be questionable, but only Lydia sees and converses with the deceased couple. "Ghostbusters"...yes, not along the lines you desired, as the ghosts were visible and terrorizing all.mike (again)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-56442115872844603662015-12-02T09:42:47.223-06:002015-12-02T09:42:47.223-06:00Sonny ~ I've seen "The Eyes of Laura Mar...Sonny ~ I've seen "The Eyes of Laura Mars" but long ago - must try to see it again.<br />The oddest and probably earliest of TLJ's movies must be "Eliza's Horoscope" - I have the DVD.

It's hard to know how best to describe the two instances mentioned in the post - some people might watch the same films and see them as ghost stories, I didn't. Visions, hallucinations, ghosts - sometimes it'll depend on the viewer, and their interpretation of those words - I agree. I did start out, with "River" thinking that it was going to be a ghost story, then changed my mind as the story unfolded.<br /> Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-38598422822738930722015-12-02T09:32:12.589-06:002015-12-02T09:32:12.589-06:00very true Mike..
