Like It's A Wonderful Life this is one of those films that may be ignored upon first release. It will become a very cherished and beloved motion picture over time. The music is great. The make up is fantastic. Frank GOrshin in a dual role is brilliant. The whole move is kind of like the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover come to life. The cast of characters are fantastic. George Burns. Grouch Marx. Harpo. Chico. Marilyn Monroe. EInstein. Elvis. Jack Benny. WC Fields. And of course ROdney Dangerfiel as GOd. The movie also features Soupy Sales, RIchard Moll, Dwayne Hickman and other classic TV starts. The film is about redemption of the human spirit. The main character goes from an alcoholic to an open and caring man. David Proval is fantastic.

twbrn321 August 2006I saw ANGELS WITH ANGLES today on IN DEMAND.
I really enjoyed it. I think it is one that everyone will react differently depending on age..........
Always enjoy Branscombe Richmond in anything. Don't know Benny Wasserman. He did a great job as Albert Einstein.
But as an avid ALBERT BROOKS fan it would have been great to see Einstein's back and then have him turn around and there is AB playing that part. Not that he would have done it but after his great appearance at the Oscars last year in the WHITE CHICKS segment, he might have. (forgive this comment but,,,,,,,, Albert Brooks was born Albert Einstein and changed his name sometime after high school: For obvious reasons. There still seem to be people surprised at his name.)
