 High Spirits, 2008-10-03
I love Peter O'Toole whether in this flick or How to Steal a Million he is one of the best English Actors. Darrel Hannah had a lot of fun in her role along with Beverly D'Angelo. A lot of silly fun.

Whimsical, romantic, sometimes funny. Older movie but can hold its own in todays world for those who want to watch something that the whole family can watch.
High Spirits -- Fun w/ Peter O'Toole, 2008-01-18
This movie was panned by every critic at the time of it's release, and rightly so; it is not a 'serious piece of cinema'. I was attracted to this movie only because it featured Peter O'Toole and I wasn't disappointed on that count. O'Toole plays a wonderful 'drunk-yet-erudite' descendant of an ancient Irish family that runs a rather delapidated hotel that is the family castle. The movie revolves around O'Toole's character's attempt to hold on to the family castle by advertising it as a haunted hotel and enlists the staff/villagers in a ridiculous attempt to play "...ghosties,ghoulies and beasties". The story evolves as the first group of guests arrive. Steve Guttenberg plays the husband of a shrew of a wife,Beverly D'Angelo. Daryl Hannah plays the murdered ancestor of O'Toole and Liam Neeson plays the murderous husband - both are ghosts that have been destined to relive the murder night after night. The supporting cast are the real stars along with O'Toole. Liam Neeson makes a decent ghost though his character isn't in the film near enough.
All in all this is a very light-hearted movie that is worth watching for O'Toole, if you can stand Steven Guttenberg and Daryl Hannah who are given way too much screen time.
There is a bit of profanity in the beginning during a phone conversation between O'Toole's character and the mogul that is calling in the mortgage on the castle. There are mild references to sex and there is a good bit of drinking.
