The Bishop's Wife 1947 DVD - Cary Grant / Loretta Young

Henry Brougham, an Episcopal Bishop, is consumed with the plans for a grand new cathedral, hoping to secure funding from a wealthy but stubborn widow. As he becomes increasingly preoccupied with his work, he starts to lose touch with his family and the original calling that inspired him to become a churchman. Enter Dudley, an angel sent to guide and assist Henry. Dudley helps those around him in unexpected ways—ways that are not always what they wish for.
