Ghost

An interesting hybrid of popular film genres, Ghost showcases the talents of its entire cast. While out on the town one evening, New York couple Sam (Patrick Swayze) and Molly (Demi Moore) are confronted by a mugger. After submitting to his demands, Sam is murdered anyway. He then finds himself a disembodied spirit, invisible to the living world, wandering without hope until he finds a spiteful spirit aboard the subway (Vincent Schiavelli) who gives him some helpful pointers on how to co-exist. Soon Sam comes back into contact with those he knew in life, and he begins to learn piece-by-piece of his close friend and co-worker Carl's (Tony Goldwyn) embezzling plot which caused his death; the apparent mugging was, in fact, a premeditated murder. In the meantime, Carl has designs on Molly, and Sam is determined to extract revenge. He contacts a psychic (Whoopi Goldberg), and together, the two set out to serve justice and stop the maniacal Carl from getting to Molly. Blending comedy, romance, action, and horror, Ghost was a box-office smash and managed to garner five Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actress (Goldberg), Best Original Screenplay, Best Editing, and Best Score; Goldberg won her first Oscar.~ Jeremy Beday, All Movie Guide

Critic's review of Ghost
View all critics' reviews (3)
- Deftly made, romantic, sentimental, sometimes silly thriller that was the surprise hit of 1990, either because of its fundamentalist view of heaven and hell or its underlying theme that revenge is good for the soul.

  Ghost with the most
  
  This has to be one of my favourite Patrick Swayze movies. My teenage daughter loves it too. Definitely a chick flick. Watch and enjoy!

Goldberg makes a whoopi on live TV
- WENN Newsdesk
- 17 Dec 2011
Whoopi Goldberg lived up to her name during a segment on US chatshow The View after appearing to break wind in front of actress Claire Danes. Goldberg was sat on a circular couch with her co-presenters talking to Danes, who was promoting her TV show Homeland earlier this week. But Danes' interview was interrupted when a loud noise seemed to erupt from Goldberg, while the Romeo + Juliet actress looked stunned. A laughing Goldberg told the panel, "Excuse me, I think I just blew a little frog... Read more
