The Canterville Ghost (original title: Le Fantôme de Canterville) is a 2016 French-Belgian family comedy film directed and edited by Yann Samuell. The film is based on a 1887 short story of the same name by Oscar Wilde.[1][3][4]
Plot summary
[edit]Set deep in the legendary landscapes of Brittany, the ghost of Aliénor de Canterville is condemned to haunt her ancestral castle and drive away every newcomer who dares take up residence.[5] She fulfils this mission flawlessly, aided by Gwilherm, her loyal servant.[5] Everything changes, however, when the Otis family — fleeing life in Paris — purchase the castle.[5] Aliénor is dismayed to find she cannot frighten this twenty-first-century family: the children mock her openly and the parents remain entirely oblivious to her presence. Only fifteen-year-old Virginia Otis, moved by the ghost's plight, sets out to free Aliénor from the curse that binds her.[5]
