Heaven Can Wait (1943 Ernst Lubitsch)

Like one of Will's 'whole life' stories, as we learn from Don Ameche why he thinks he should be in Hell. Talking of hell, how the hell did they get permission to shoot a film in colour in 1943?

Perhaps not as funny as other Lubitsches, but very good.

Gene Tierney, Laird Cregar, Charles Coburn, Eugene Pallette. Spring Byington, Marjorie Main, Signe Hasso, Aubrey Mather.


Strange to see a portrait framed like this
