Movie Review - Heaven Can Wait

Heaven Can Wait (1943)
directed by Ernst Lubitsch
rating: 5 out of 5 cravats
on DVD from Netflix

Of course sometimes I wish the whole history of movies could fit on the head of a pin as elegant, slight, and American as "Heaven Can Wait." Anyone who says it's all in the screenplay doesn't remember the crane shot when Martha and Henry dance.
