The Canterville Ghost (1985 TV Movie)

Jenny Beck: Virginia Otis

Quotes 

• Virginia Otis : If you're a ghost, how can you bump into things?

  Sir Simon de Canterville : Oh, I do it sometimes for effect. Can't keep it up for long. I begin to fade. Oh. Confound those pestering brothers of yours! In 500 years of dignified haunting, I have never been subject to such impudence!

  Virginia Otis : Dignified haunting? You've hardly been a gentleman. You've frightened my mother, my father hasn't had a night of rest and now my brothers are all in trouble because of you.

  Sir Simon de Canterville : Oh, what is the use? I'm losing my touch. I can't even pull off a good scare anymore. The people of your century are so cruel and unfeeling. I thought you were different.

  Virginia Otis : Oh, but I am. So different that nobody even wants me for a friend.

  Sir Simon de Canterville : But why do you want to be like the rest? When I was alive, I was different, and proud of it.
