Here Comes Mister Jordan

Robert Montgomery, Claude Rains

Pretty silly drivel from 1941. Mix-up in heaven gets a prizefighter sent back to live in a millionaire's body, etc, etc.

Badly marred by the everyman stereotype of the lead. He was an ignorant palooka who I found much over-played. Every scene was severely dumbed down to make it appealing to a fifth grade audience. Warren Beatty did a much better job in his re-make Heaven Can Wait.
