Description

A sophisticated supernatural Hollywood comedy whose influence continues to be felt, Here Comes Mr. Jordan stars the eminently versatile Robert Montgomery as a working-class boxer and amateur aviator whose plane crashes in a freak accident. He finds himself in heaven but is told, by a wry angel named Mr. Jordan (Claude Rains), that his death was a clerical error, and that he can return to earth by entering the body of a corrupt (and about-to-be-murdered) banker—whose soul could use a transplant. Having inspired a sequel with Rita Hayworth and two remakes (the first starring Warren Beatty and the second Chris Rock), Alexander Hall’s effervescent Here Comes Mr. Jordan is comic perfection.Special Features:New 2K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrackNew conversation between critic Michael Sragow and independent filmmaker Michael SchlesingerAudio interview from 1991 in which actor Elizabeth Montgomery discusses her father, actor Robert MontgomeryLux Radio Theatre adaptation of Here Comes Mr. Jordan from 1942 starring Cary Grant, Claude Rains, Evelyn Keyes, and James GleasonTrailerPLUS: An essay by critic Farran Smith NehmeClick Images to Enlarge
