Movie Info

Mike Shea (Timothy Hutton) dies and goes to heaven, where he falls in love with Annie (Kelly McGillis). They get married and are about to live happily...(read more...) ever after for all eternity when Annie is reincarnated and sent down to earth. Lost without her, Mike makes a deal with his guardian angel to let him reincarnate as well so he can find her. The only problem is neither will remember more than slight feelings and intuitions of their life in heaven, and they will have only 30 years to find each other.

Brimming over with touches both clever and poignant, this romantic saga is a shamelessly perfect date movie and a story of beautiful inspiration for the noncynical. There’s also a lot of great music from composer Mark Isham and Neil Young, whom both also appear in the film, as does Tom Petty, Ric Ocasek, Amanda Plummer, Ellen Barkin, writer Tom Robbins, and saxophone legend Pee Wee Ellis. Director Alan Rudolph directed from a screenplay by producers Bruce Evans and Raymond Gideon.
