Hold That Ghost

As another reviewer mentioned, I too was unaware that there was an additional 13 minutes edited from the televised version I had seen so often on WPIX Channel 11 in New York, so long ago as a child. That is until recently. Finally having viewed the full version as an adult, I can speculate with some understanding as to why it might have been cut from the public broadcast (though I've searched for info regarding the specifics and come up empty). That not withstanding, I highly recommend watching which ever version you can find of this funny and well made classic.

Though some more critical viewers may find many of the gags passé and/or corny in this day age, when it was released it was well received by movie goers and critics alike in such notable newspapers of the day as the New York Times and Motion Picture Herald.

Those of us young and/or old who can appreciate the type of comedy that originated during a more innocent era, should be happily delighted with this classic comedic gem from the '40s.
