The spirit of “Ghost” literally haunts “The In Between,” a romance about two high school students whose love affair is tragically cut short, including a cameo by the poster for the 1990 blockbuster which starred Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze.
While that same idea has been used many times before on the big screen — most popularly with “Ghost,” in which Patrick Swayze stayed temporarily tethered to the world after his murder because he wanted to warn his lovely girlfriend (Demi Moore) that the killer might be coming for her — its treatment is far more flimsy in “The In Between.”
Like “Ghost” and “Truly Madly Deeply,” this is a story of love and loss.
Paramount+ obliges with a “Ghost”-like supernatural teen romance that’s made all the better thanks to its two magnetic leads — Livermore native Kyle Allen and Joey King.
Evoking the 90s classic Ghost , Paramount+ original movie The In Between is an adorable otherworldly romance that comes right at the perfect time of year: the movie-starved opening stretch.
The nurse Olivia (Lucas) and bookish school teacher Eric (Lou Taylor Pucci of “The Chumscrubber” and “Thumbsucker”) are there to help, though there’s friction because mechanic brother David hasn’t been involved in any of their lives, and here they are, caring enough to clean up a mess he should deal with himself.
A full enjoyment of "The Face of Love" requires having forgotten, or not knowing, that Alfred Hitchcock made "Vertigo."
