Heaven Can Wait

1978 101 min PG Fantasy · Comedy · Romance

Joe Pendleton... the only guy who ever raised Hell about going to Heaven.

A quarterback gets prematurely yanked to heaven then denied reentry because HR down in Accounting misplaced his file. With his original body incinerated, he’s rerouted through the recently deceased, who happened to own the team he wanted to buy anyway. The murderous next-of-kin stare as he buys the club just to resume throwing touchdown passes.

Directed by Buck Henry, Warren Beatty · Written by Warren Beatty, Elaine May
