The remake of the 1947 film, "The Bishop's Wife", will definitely make you smile. An angel (Washington) comes down to earth to help a preacher (Vance) with his dwindling congregation and troubled marriage to the choir director (Houston). If the superb cast doesn't make you wanna see it (especially a gorgeous Denzel), try it for the stellar soundtrack (courtesy of the divine Ms. Houston) that features the beautiful song, 'Who Would Imagine a King'.
