General Interest The Preacher's Wife [DVD] [1997] Polish Release, cover may contain Polish text/markings. The disk has English audio and subtitles.This remake of the Cary Grant/Loretta Young classic 'The Bishop's Wife' tells the story of Henry Biggs (Courtney B. Vance), a preacher who is too busy attending to the needs of his parishioners to pay attention to his wife Julia (Whitney Houston). When he prays for help, he does not expect it to arrive in the form of angel Dudley (Denzel Washington), who sets about lightening the reverend's load. However, with Dudley and Julia spending so much time together, their mutual attraction might just ruin the preacher's marriage altogether. From . This tedious remake of the classic Christmas movie The Bishop's Wife falls on its face by significantly altering the careful design of Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert E Sherwood's story for the original film. In Sherwood's version, a rather wooden, inept bishop and his lonely wife unknowingly take into their lives a heaven-sent angel who aids the former and ends up falling in love with the latter. In this unnecessary update, an inner-city preacher (Courtney B. Vance) and his estranged spouse (Whitney Houston) are visited by a celestial goof (Denzel Washington), whose unsolicited offer of help is enough to galvanise Vance's character to fix his own problems. What that means is this: by the second act, there's no reason to have Washington's angel in the story. Even his infatuation with the missus isn't enough to warrant his hanging around this movie the change is a colossal blunder by director Penny Marshall. Vance ends up stealing the film from Washington, but it's a Pyrrhic victory for the most part this movie just seems like a series of random scenes between opportunities for Houston to belt out songs. --Tom Keogh Shipping Shipping is free for all customers in Australia.
