Casper
Directed by Brad Silberling
Casper is a kind young ghost who peacefully haunts a mansion in Maine. When specialist James Harvey arrives to communicate with Casper and his fellow spirits, he brings along his teenage daughter, Kat. Casper quickly falls in love with Kat, but their budding relationship is complicated not only by his transparent state, but also by his troublemaking apparition uncles and their mischievous antics.

neutral · AI labelView post →Speaking of Casper, one of my true, die-on-this-hill, dissertation-style opinions is that the 1995 "Casper" movie, (and all of its related tie-in ephemera) is the single most perfectly distilled encapsulation of the 90's--pop culture, ethos, aesthetics, sensibilities, etc.
