The Bishop's Wife
On Facebook this morning I saw a post that asked for the name of a movie that you had watched more than five times. My initial thought was "NO WAY"! I can barely get myself to sit and watch once let alone five times. Sitting is not my strong suit. But as I actually thought about it, I realized I had watched one movie several times, probably at least 5.
The movie is, " The Bishop's Wife"* starring Cary Grant, Loretta Young, and David Niven-it's an old movie. From the same era as "It's a Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed. Most people probably won't recognize these actors but they were some of the biggest stars of their generation.
It is a wonderful movie with many life lessons beautifully woven into the script. Some so subtle you almost miss them. There is humor, and scenes that are so beautiful I can't think how to describe them.
I cannot think of a more uplifting movie.
*Obviously, not a Roman Catholic Bishop.
