The Bishop's Wife

The Bishop's Wife, 1947.  Starring Loretta Young, David Niven, Cary Grant and a wonderful character actor named Monty Woolley.  This is the story of an angel that comes down from heaven to help a bishop with his church and his marriage.  One of my favorite character actors is Monty Woolley.  A lot of people do not know that he was a professor of drama at Yale, and was forced out after a falling out with the President of Yale.  His friend Cole Porter asked him to come to Broadway to  perform in one of his plays and from there he starred in many films.  One of my favorite stories of Monty: while on a world cruise with  Cole and his wife Linda, Cole looked at the sunrise and said "it's delightful".  His wife Linda added "it's delicious" and Monty said "it's De-lovely!"  Boy do I love the movies!
