TY so much for the upload. A beautiful & haunting romantic, fantasy. A splendid adaptation, from one of my favourite movies. :-)

Of course, I love the movie with Jennifer Jones. No matter how old she gets. She can portray teen girls easily. The film turns from black and white to color at the end. But, radio lets us imagine it all. 🤓

Is this based on the book and not the movie? Amazing story! Combo of Ghost and the Sixth Sense. Is Nancy Reagan's voice in this like she appeared as a kid at the end of the movie.

I'd like to know too...unless it was Anne Baxter herself voicing the character as a child...didn't Jennifer Jones do that?

@@ShadowsofthePastTheater all I know is it was one of the more profound movies ever.
