The Devil's Advocate (1997) and Ghost (1990)

In the new episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two movies that went through a lot of changes on their way to the screen.  The Devil's Advocate was originally set to star Brad Pitt, with Joel Schumacher directing. When it got going, it didn't take long for problems to arise. With Ghost, the huge hit movie was originally a lot darker - and it took some convincing before Patrick Swayze and Whoopi Goldberg were cast. Stories of both are told in this episode.
