In which the Mister joins me in reviewing THE BISHOP’S WIFE (1947), from scriptwriters Robert Sherwood and Leonardo Bercovici (uncredited screenplay credit to Billy Wilder and Charles Brackett) from a novel by Robert Nathan and directed by Henry Koster.  In this very strange holiday film, an angel (Cary Grant) is sent from Heaven to help a Bishop (David Niven) understand the true meaning of the holidays by stealing the affections of his wife (Loretta Young), child (Karolyn Grimes) and everyone he knows.  This is currently streaming on Netflix but also available to buy/rent from Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
