Director Henry Koster's 1947 rom-com
The Bishop's Wife celebrates its 75th anniversary with a
re-release in UK/ROI cinemas.
The film stars David Niven and Loretta Young as a bishop and
his wife struggling with their marriage. When the former prays for divine
intervention, an angel is sent to Earth to help out the couple, but
unluckily for the bishop, the angel looks like Cary Grant. Doh!
The Bishop's Wife is in UK/ROI cinemas from December
9th.
Check out the new trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Heavenly bells are ringing, jubilant choirs are singing and Christmas joy is blanketing the world like freshly fallen snow in THE BISHOP’S WIFE, directed by Henry Koster (Mr. Hobbs Takes A Vacation, Harvey, The Robe). But the Yuletide spirit has yet to warm Bishop Henry Brougham's Victorian home. Struggling to raise funds for a new cathedral, the preoccupied young clergyman has neglected his loving wife Julia, and now only divine intervention can save their marriage! But the powerful and handsome angel sent from above has a mind of his own and teaching mortal Henry an immortal lesson in romance isn't all he's got planned!
