Heaven Can Wait (1943) Synopsis

With his case pending review, the soul of elegant aristocrat and incorrigible philanderer Henry Van Cleve enters the opulent lobby where they separate the wheat from the chaff and the saints from the sinners. Convinced that he belongs to the place where so many people had previously told him to go, Henry is shocked to discover that generalities can't cut it: the late Casanova must earn his passport to hell. As an otherworldly, courteous, and impeccably-dressed adjudicator spares the time to listen to his side of the story, Henry starts to recount the long story of his eventful life, sparing no details about the women who played a pivotal role in his seventy-year existence. The question remains: will suave Henry Van Cleve go Up or Down?—Nick Riganas
