I've only seen this movie once but I remember it vividly. It was a showcase piece for a lot of actors (See cover of movie for a few names)

It's basically about a Tuxedo coat which passes through four sets of owners before being used for a scarecrow in a field. Something happens to each of the people who wear the coat. Nearly everyone in this film became famous in movies, tho I don't recall the one who got shot being in much....

The Enchanted Cottage

Cast:
Dorothy McGuire .... Laura Pennington
Robert Young .... Oliver Bradford
Herbert Marshall .... Maj. John Hillgrove
Mildred Natwick .... Mrs. Abigail Minnett
Spring Byington .... Violet Price
Hillary Brooke .... Beatrice Alexander
Richard Gaines .... Frederick 'Freddy' Price
Alec Englander .... Danny 'Taxi' Stanton
Robert Clarke .... Marine Corporal
Eden Nicholas .... Soldier


A young man rents a cottage after he's horribly scared in the war. He's told it's a enchanted cottage and true love blooms there. He hooks up with a very homely woman, but while they are in the cottage he isn't scared and she isn't homely. A lovely movie about how true love sees beyond surface imperfections.


The Thin Man (et al)

Six utterly fab movies starring William Powell and Myrna Loy as the crime solving couple Nick and Nora Charles (with Asta the dog) with snappy humor and dry wit.
