Show Notes

Just in time for Valentine's Day, the gang at Philosophy in Film explores love and the afterlife in 1990's surprise Box Office smash, Ghost, starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Tony Goldwyn, and Whoopi Goldberg. Tag along this journey of treachery and self-discovery beginning with Producer's Notes (5:40), then Alain gives his patented Beauclair Synopsis (13:46). Next, Craig takes us down the winding turns of Philosopher's Corner (24:00), then the gang dukes it out over the Round Table (33:16), with Reviews (1:40:15) and Mailbag (1:49:58) lighting the way to the end. As always, we discuss the philosophical and non-philosophical aspects of the movie that caught our attention, and even some deep diving takes on a classic film.
