A Matter of Life and Death (1946)

This movie is rather bizarre, but also rather delightful. The premise is a clever one, and the two heroes, if rather forced into each other's arms, are certainly lovely people. The sequences in the afterlife, especially on the giant staircase, look absolutely gorgeous. If you're looking for something a little bit off the beaten path as far as old romances, this is an excellent choice. 3.5 stars.

Flickchart: #724 out of 1849, between Topsy-Turvy and Strictly Ballroom.
