Flickle answer for October 24, 2026

Oct 24’s Flickle hints

Hint 1
A 1990 romantic fantasy about a murdered man who stays behind as a spirit to protect his partner.
Hint 2
Pottery, a subway ghost and a medium played by Whoopi Goldberg.
Hint 3
The pottery-wheel scene is set to Unchained Melody; one word, first letter G.
Reveal the answer
Ghost (1990)
Why this is the answer (spoilers)

Ghost is a 1990 romantic fantasy directed by Jerry Zucker, with Patrick Swayze as a murdered banker whose spirit works through Whoopi Goldberg's psychic to save Demi Moore. Goldberg won an Oscar for the role.

The clips trade on two of the most parodied images in cinema: the pottery wheel and the shadow demons. A New York loft, a tense subway ride and Goldberg's broad comedy are all in the reveal path. If a scene feels like a love story shot through with a thriller's shadows, this is the answer.
