Cary Grant stars as an angel named Dudley in this romantic comedy from 1947. Dudley comes to the aid of a bishop, played by David Niven, who asks for spiritual help in the building of a new cathedral. Dudley is the answer to his prayers, but not in the way that the bishop anticipated. When the bishop's wife begins to fall for Dudley, things get complicated. The film also stars Loretta Young and was directed by Henry Koster. A 1996 remake called The Preacher's Wife starred Denzel Washington and Whitney Houston.
