It focuses on Sam Wheat (Swayze), a murdered banker, whose ghost sets out to save his girlfriend, Molly Jensen (Moore), from the person who killed him – through the help of the psychic Oda Mae Brown (Goldberg). Ghost was theatrically released on July 13, 1990, to commercial success, grossing $505 million against a budget of $22–23 million and emerging as the highest-grossing film of 1990 and at the time of its release, was the third-highest-grossing film of all time. The film was a sleeper hit, unexpectedly outperforming several blockbuster action films released that summer. Its success extended to the home video market, and it was the most rented film of 1991 in the United States. The film initially received mixed reviews from critics, with praise going towards the score and performances of the cast. Ghost earned five nominations at the 63rd Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Original Score, Best Film Editing, winning Best Supporting Actress for Goldberg and Best Original Screenplay for Rubin. Ghost was the first film Jerry Zucker directed on his own, as well as his first dramatic film. He had previously been part of the Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker directing team, known for their parody films. Zucker stated that his decision to direct Ghost was not made to distance himself from comedies or to mark a new chapter in his career, but he was merely "just looking for a good film to direct." When screenwriter Bruce Joel Rubin learned that Zucker was to direct the film and wanted to make changes to his script, he was apprehensive, as he wanted Miloš Forman or Stanley Kubrick to direct and feared Zucker would turn his script into a comedy. However, Rubin changed his mind and warmed up after dining with Zucker and being impressed by how "deeply philosophical" he was.[5] Harrison Ford, Michael J. Fox, Paul Hogan, Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, Kevin Kline, Alec Baldwin and Tom Cruise were considered for the role of Sam Wheat. Bruce Willis turned the role of Sam Wheat down as he did not understand the script and later called himself a "knucklehead" for declining. Similarly, Fox thought the film wouldn't work, and, in hindsight, regretted turning the role down. Michelle Pfeiffer, Molly Ringwald, Meg Ryan, Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman were considered for the role of Molly Jensen. Tina Turner, Patti LaBelle, and Oprah Winfrey were either considered or auditioned for the role of Oda Mae Brown. Zucker initially was not interested in casting Whoopi Goldberg as Oda Mae, and Swayze advocated for her to be cast. Zucker credited arguments from radio host Dennis Prager with deciding to "lighten" Rubin's original script with a moral message. Rubin noted that he "wanted to tell a ghost story from the ghost's perspective": "One day, I was watching a production of Hamlet, which begins with the ghost of Hamlet's father saying, ‘Revenge my death,’" he recalled. "I thought, ‘Wow, let's transpose that into the 20th century; it'd be an interesting story.’ And the idea hit me." Filming for Ghost began shooting in July 1989. Many of the interior scenes were shot at Paramount in Los Angeles. The interior of Sam and Molly's loft is a reproduction of the home and studio of artist Michele Oka Doner, built from plans she provided because she declined to allow filming in her loft. It was reconstructed in an unused loft nearby in her Soho neighbourhood and featured many of the same details as the actual loft, such as radiators around columns, open stairs and a house-shaped enclosure for the refrigerator. Filming of the apartment took place at 102 Prince Street, lower Manhattan. The exterior scenes were shot in New York City, particularly in Bedford–Stuyvesant, Soho, and Wall Street, for about five weeks. The film features about 100 special effects shots. Demi Moore's famous 'boy cut' in the movie was designed by Manhattan hair stylist John Sahag. The final scene used digital video effects. Originally it was meant to show Patrick Swayze kissing Demi Moore before walking up a mylar platform toward a bluescreen with grips in the shot. VFX supervisor Richard Edlund didn't think the audience would buy it and used Quantel’s “Harry” video-compositing system to combine the workprint with Swayze with elements that had been shot on an Oxberry animation stand and things like an endoscope of Christmas tinsel A masterpiece from the 90s movie era, which was a perfect date movie with a fully thought-out script and a director known for comedy and not drama.

En 4K el sonido está en inglés con Dolby TrueHD con subtítulos en español. No hay audio en castellano, ya lo sabía antes de comprarla. La compré por ser una buena película y la mejora en 4K. Tiene grano por lo cual no pierde naturalidad. Todo bien.

⌛️ DURATA: 129 Minuti circa. 📄 INTRODUZIONE: Ghost è uno dei film più famosi nel mondo del cinema, un vero e proprio cult del 1990 che ha colpito il cuore delle persone e che ha avuto un enorme successo al cinema. Diretto da Jerry Zucker, vede come protagonista l’attore Patrick Swayze, deceduto all’età di 57 anni per un cancro al pancreas, nel ruolo di Sam affiancato dalla giovanissima Demi Moore nel ruolo della fidanzata Molly e Whoopi Goldberg che riveste quello di Oda Mae Brown, una sensitiva truffatrice inconsapevole delle sue doti. Il loro talento, la loro sensibilità e la stima reciproca hanno contribuito al successo del film con citazioni e momenti indimenticabili per qualunque spettatore e per gli attori stessi. 🎞 TRAMA: Sam e Molly erano una coppia felice, lui un impiegato di banca e lei un’artista spensierata, fin quando dopo una serata trascorsa insieme stavano tornando nella casa nella quale convivevano e vengono pedinati da un ladro. Nel tentativo di difendersi, Sam rimane ucciso da un colpo di pistola e la sua anima, incapace di allontanarsi dalla donna che ama, lo fa rimanere accanto a lei per proteggerla e per cercare di capire cosa si nascondeva dietro a quel tentavo di rapina, troppo strano per essere solo tale. Per far comunicare la coppia interviene Oda Mae, una bizzarra truffatrice sensitiva inconsapevole della sua capacità fin quando riesce ad ascoltare l’anima di Sam e decide di aiutare Molly, ormai distrutta dal dolore. ✒️ RECENSIONE: Ghost è uno di quei film che non ci si stanca mai di vedere e che soprattutto emoziona come la prima volta ma che non verte su una storia con un lieto fine al quale siamo abituati quanto piuttosto al sentimento che lega i protagonisti al di là della morte. Se a qualcuno può sembrare eccessivo il romanticismo che trasmette la giovane coppia, ad altri non può far altro che trasmettere la bellezza di un amore vero e puro che resta forte e consapevole dopo la morte di Sam il quale, riesce a dire a Molly il ti amo che non era mai riuscito a dirle in vita perché incapace di usare una parola detta da tutti e diventata convenzionale. Dunque si tratta di un film con una notevole potenza emotiva ma anche con un punto di vista surreale, quello di Sam visto come un’anima, ma è il personaggio interpretato da Whoopi a conferire una nota di colore alla trama per la sua stravaganza alternata ad una sensibilità tale da riuscire ad aiutare Sam e Molly. Dal punto di vista dello spettatore il film è il perfetto connubio tra romanticismo e umorismo. 💿 CONTENUTI SPECIALI - DISCO BLU RAY: - Commenti del regista e dello sceneggiatore; - Storie di fantasmi: la nascita di un classico; - Viaggio nel paranormale; - Alchimia di una scena d'amore; - Trailer Cinematografico HD; - Galleria fotografica.
