Back in the late 60's, there was a movie, perhaps 2 parts over 2 Sundays, which was broadcast on Disney's Wonderful World of Color. The basic plot, as I recall it, involved a couple of children, brother and sister, possibly, and a treasure. Some of it took place in an large, old home, (naturally), which had secret passages. The passages were located between rooms and allowed them to look into these rooms. There were also secret stairways. Again, naturally. One of the things I recall was that there was a clue to aid them to locate the treasure and it went something like this: "This light does not help you to see where you are going; it is to help you see where you've been." It referred to the light on the stern of an older sailing ship. Can anyone help with the title of this? Thanks, Ron
Did a search and these two stood out: Swiss Family Robinson and In Search of the Castaways. But they seem to take place earlier in the 60's. I just asked a friend about it and she brought up The Ghost & Mrs. Muir. I did a search and there was a short lived series from around 1968-1970 of the same name. Is it anything like this? Here's a list of Disney films from that era.
Escape from Witch Mountain? (I've never seen it, but I seem to recall there being something about a boat somewhere in there)
Thanks for your input. I am familiar with these three items. What I am looking for takes place not at sea but in a house by the shore. Ron
Woo woo! Found it. 1969 Secrets of the Pirates Inn Thanks, B.J. for the link. The actual clue is: "The flame that glows stirs the souls of men, Lights not where we go, but where we've been." Ron
