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.
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 have been trying to remember the title of this movie and who was in it. I haven't seen it since about 1980 or so. I saw this film when I was a child of about 10 or 11 years of age and I loved it. Of course it was great seeing "the bionic woman (Lindsay Wagner)and "sue ellen ewing" (Linda Gray) on screen in period costumes. That's who they were back then. I have always been fascinated by history, costumes and time travel. I mean really, what if these things were really possible? Anyway this film is a sweet and moving love story with a bit of science fiction thrown in. I highly recommend it. Thanks to this site I can now seek it out for purchase.
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.

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.

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.
Did you know
- TriviaThe film is based on the 1977 novel "Second Sight" by David L. Williams. In the novel, Jennie merely finds a drawing of the white Victorian dress and has a replica made, whereas in the film she finds an actual white Victorian dress in the attic. The replica dress in the novel and the dress found in the attic in the film both work as the catalyst transporting her back in time.
- GoofsWhen Jennie is told to take off her wet dress, it was obviously dry.
