Die zwei Welten der Jenny Logan

I notice that many previous reviewers have been trying to obtain a copy of this film after viewing same. I can really understand why because it's impact is romantically haunting. When I saw it advertised for screening in the 1980's I preset a video to record it while I was out shopping. Unfortunately due to insufficient tape I missed the ending and it was two years later when I managed to obtain a copy from a local video store to complete my experience of a tale which I found absolutely fascinating. Lindsay Wagner is magnificent and well suited in the role of the gentle loving romantic Jenny Logan along with her less enamored happy go lucky husband Michael played by Marc Singer. When they buy an old house once owned by an unknown artist she finds a doorway to the world of the past by wearing an old dress discovered in the attic. This leads her to a romance with the artist as she travels to a time in pre-turn of the century 1900. The great appeal of this film is the transition from the uncaring hustle and bustle of the present to the gracious principled and courteous past marking the distinctly different attitudes of the people of these respective eras. The story right to the ending is a well laid out plot with the respective events giving a totally believable twist to the fate and fortune of Jenny Logan. This is a film which you can watch over and over, never find boring, and then become caught up being addicted with the fantasy of being one of the principal characters in this unforgettable tale. A great tear jerker for the ladies.

I loved this movie, I think of it often, I even brought a poster of a woman in the victorian dress, I called it my "Jennie Logan". I would love to have a copy either VHS of DVD. A TV movie has never an that kind of affect on me.

When I first saw this wonderful movie my daughter was three. She is now twenty-six & we still remember this movie, the name of the characters,the story line. I have looked everywhere. I've been told there isn't any such movie. Wow! Imagine that? If I had my own copy I'd watch it on my birthday, my daughter's & my mother's & probably my sisters. Lindsay Wagner & Marc Singer are absolutely perfect. The mystery, the hope, the desire for the perfect love, all is very poignant & fresh. It doesn't get old no matter how many times you see it. It is absolutely wonderful, fantastic, fabulous. More films such as this one & people wouldn't need valium, or paxel. Everyone would go around starry eyed & humming Love is a many splendored thing! If any movie should be made available to the public, this one more than any other, should.

I previously wrote a review of this movie several years ago, and just looked through the additional ones, with the most recent being 2009, I believe.

I wanted to let everyone know that this film IS now available on DVD from MGM; in fact they print it on demand when ordered. It is well worth having in your collection in such a pristine way.

Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Worlds-Jennie-Limited-Edition- Collection/dp/B003B3O5K4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC? ie=UTF8&colid=3DI8X1ES4OHLR&coliid=IG3YNOGXJ4TKC

Great film, highly recommended. If the link does not work, you can go to Lindsay Wagner's page (www.lindsaywagner.com) and to go the movies/TV section, and there is a link there for the Amazon.com purchase.

Time travel movies can often be confusing the trick I believe is to try and keep it as simple as possible. In the Two worlds of Jennie Logan they keep the time travel aspect tightly bound in the confines of a love story. The beautiful Lindsay Wagner headlines a cast that includes V's Marc Singer and Dallas Linda Gray. After her husbands infidelity Jennie Logan believes an escape to the country is what they need to get their marriage back on track. They buy an old house that she instantly falls in love with. While exploring she uncovers a dress in the attic. Getting the dress resized she tries it on and discovers she is transported back into the past. There she meets David Reynolds a man she realizes will be killed very shortly. Unable to resist her attraction to him the two embark on an affair prompting Jennie to try and uncover in the present what happened to him to see if she can prevent it. Not unlike Hallmarks The love Letter with Jennifer Jason Leigh and Sandra Bullocks The Lake House this is an engaging movie that is crying out to be remade and lenghtened. Then however it wouldn't have Lindsay Wagner in it and she makes the movie. I do think it is a shame this is not yet available on DVD when so many low budget crap movies are.
