Show notes
"High Spirits" was made because MGM heard Warner Brothers was making a "Beetlejuice"-type movie, so MGM wanted their own version whacky, undead, love story comedy. Steve Guttenberg is a brilliant actor, but he is directed a little off in this absurd tale of... sex? and... ghosts? and... alcoholism? Peter O'Toole did his own stunts and was actually drunk in the movie. You can see Liam Neeson deliver a joke. Something got lost in the edit with this weirdo masterpiece suffering from 'too-many-cooks-in-the-kitchen' syndrome. But "High Spirits" is free on this wonderful platform.
