Description: Here Comes Mr. Jordan is a 1941 American fantasy romantic comedy film directed by Alexander Hall, in which a boxer, mistakenly taken to Heaven before his time, is given a second chance back on Earth. It stars Robert Montgomery, Claude Rains, Evelyn Keyes, James Gleason, Edward Everett Horton, Rita Johnson, and John Emery. The film screenplay, based on Harry Segall's 1938 play Heaven Can Wait (originally titled It Was Like This), was written by Sidney Buchman and Seton I. Miller. The working titles for the film were Heaven Can Wait and Mr. Jordan Comes to Town. Horton and Gleason reprised their roles in the film's sequel Down to Earth (1947), while Roland Culver took on the role of Mr. Jordan. Warren Beatty later remade the film in 1978 as Heaven Can Wait. The 2001 film Down to Earth, starring Chris Rock, is also based on the play. REAR COVER A two-time Academy Award® - winning film (1941, Best Original Story, Best Screenplay) based on the play "Heaven Can Wait", HERE COMES MR. JORDAN is a delightfully romantic comedy with exceptional performances and snappy dialogue. Joe Pendleton (ROBERT MONTGOMERY) is a boxer headed for a championship fight until he is killed in a plane crash. Unfortunately for Joe, he was not supposed to die in the crash, but instead was brought up to heaven too soon by an overeager angel (EDWARD EVERETT HORTON). It is up to the angel's boss, Mr. Jordan (CLAUDE RAINS), to find Joe a new body and give him another chance to fight for the title. In the process of finding his new home, Joe meets an idealistic young woman (EVELYN KEYES) to whom he is immediately smitten, and she gives him a reason to live beyond prize fighting.
