30 What's this talk about a ghost in Three Men And A Baby?
There is a rumor that if you watch TMATB very closely you will see a
ghost in it. The scene in question is the one where Ted Danson's
character meets his mom in his apartment. If you look near the window
you can see an image resembling a small boy. This is supposedly the
ghost of a boy who was killed in the house where the movie was filmed.
First of all, the movie was not filmed in a house, but on a Toronto
soundstage. So the whole premise is hokey to begin with. But here is
more evidence provided by: brian@b11.ingr.com (Brian Enright)):
> I then rewound and ran it through super slow mo. When they pass the
> window on their way in, you can't see the boy but it looks like there
> is a bed post sticking up. When they pass the window again it looks
> like a two-dimensional cut-out but not of Ted Danson. It's a little
> boy with a baseball cap, a white tee-shirt and a blue unbuttoned
> button-down shirt in my opinion. Hmmmm. I had to investigate.

> After further investigation of other scenes in the movie I found there
> were no bed posts on the bed. Then I hit the clue that gave it away.
> This particular scene is almost at the end of the movie. In this
> scene Ted Danson walks to a window where there is a cut-out of him in
> a black top hat and a black tuxedo with a white shirt. If you
> examine this cut out closely and go back to the scene in question,
> you will notice that they are the same cut out. You can see that the
> boy *is* Ted Danson and he is wearing a top hat and even his shoulders
> hidden behind the curtain are noticeably not a little boy's but a man

> I hate to burst any bubbles but it *definitely is* a cut-out of Ted
> Danson in a *tuxedo*..
