In The Bishops Wife (1947), heavenly bells are ringing, jubilant choirs are singing and Christmas joy is blanketing the world like freshly fallen snow. But the Yuletide spirit has yet to warm Bishop Henry Broughams Victorian home. Struggling to raise funds for a new cathedral, the preoccupied young clergyman has neglected his loving wife Julia, and now only divine intervention can save their marriage! But the powerful and handsome angel sent from above has a mind of his own and teaching mortal Henry an immortal lesson inromance isnt all hes got planned! While a fantasy, there are no fantastic heavenly manifestations. Theres a humanness about the characters, even the angel, that beguiles full attention. The Library has the DVD available.
