Heaven Can Wait (1943)
Directed by Ernst
Lubitsch this film based on the play “Birthday” stars Dom Ameche
and Gene Tierney. A dead old man tells the devil his life story to
prove that he deserves to be admitted into hell.
This is a pretty light
hearted film that while not overly sentimental is fairly easy
watching. There may not be much of a moral that the story is pushing
but it works decently enough if lacking some depth. As an early
colour film the colour here looks good and the film is well made if
unremarkable in it's execution.
3/5
