I bought this for my brother and his wife as it is one of their favorite movies. I already have a copy and like me, they think the world of this film.
Two words - Cary Grant.
Skip the ridiculous remake, "The Preacher's Wife", that film can't hold a candle to the original and that in spite of what I heard is an excellent performance by Mr. Washington.
This film has great performances all around and the film exudes the Christmas spirit back when Hollyweird was still Hollywood. Highly recommended?
You betcha.
Trust me. I know what I' doin' when I'm reviewin'.

I adore Cary Grant, but this is in my top 5 favorites of his movies. I love to watch this every Christmas. It is such a beautiful story, one to be revisited time and time again. I've seen the remake- "The Preacher's Wife"- but this is even better. I can't say enough in praise of this movie.

This first version was always my favorite. So gentile, caring, fantasy story that still rings true. The ensemble cast works perfectly. The transfer is clear, digital clean as opposed to a VHF copy. The movie is perfect for holiday viewing.

Such a nostalgic movie with several amazing actors. The plot reminds us to appreciate one another & what’s most important, family & friendship. Hard work is necessary & having fun is as well. It takes me back to my childhood & what seemed to be simpler times. Loretta Young, David Niven, & Cary Grant are fabulous actors & their characters in this movie so entertaining.

One of my favorite Christmas gems. Cary Grant was at his prime when it came out. I looked on Ebay; however, it was less expensive from Best Buy. Always nice to add to my collection; at a great price too.

My salesman Robert is a great asset to your team. He is knowledgeable, friendly, personable and goes the extra mile to insure customer satisfaction. This was a small purchase yet He acted like it was an important purchase and like I was a valued customer. I was so impressed by him.

Got this for my wife as a Christmas present. She had mentioned to one of her friends that she liked this film, but seldom saw it appear on cable. Best Buy had it in stock, delivered within days, and we watched it Christmas evening. Got a few husband points, too!

Great old Christmas movie made 2 to 4 years before my wife and I were born. A Christmas movie with a spiritual message of Christmas and what really matters.

This movie has always been one of my favorite Christmas Classics. This 2014 transfer has great black contrast and very good DTS audio. Order two and send one to someone special.

purchased 1947 and 1996 versions of the same movie recently - The Bishop's Wife and The Preacher's Wife - the newer one for my son, and the older version for my DH and me.

This is a great story with wonderful actors. We watched every Christmas time since I was little (a very long trip me ago). Everyone ends to see this at least once.

There's a reason this film was a Best Picture nominee!! No matter how many times I see it, a great film. Far superior to "The Preacher's Wife" remake.
