I think that my husband actually liked this show more than I did… being called Master and all… must be a guy thing.
Jeannie: Master is football more important to you than I am?

“There’s a magic in the sense of longing.”From “The Haunted”
“The Haunted,” is one of those movies that is less than a blockbuster.  Aidan Quinn and Kate Beckinsale went on to stardom in spite of it, not because of it.  But it had a couple of redeeming points and this quote was one of them.
