Thank you SO much for reminding me!   I even had it written down and still forgot.   It's one of my favs of all time too!

@golding76  I'm watching it now with DH. We have had it on TCM for several hours now since there have been several Christmas movies back to back.

 

My fave Christmas movie is "It Happened on 5th Avenue"  Smiley Happy

I'm watching it already. Niven is so unlikable in this role.

I love how all the females "Dudley" encounters are drawn to him in a very.....human way, lol.  Because of course, it's Cary Grant!

@antiquarian. I was thinking the same thing!
No wonder the film wasn't working at first when Grant's and Niven's roles were reversed and they had to start all over again swapping roles.

Someone had the good sense to realize the spicy comedic implications of Cary Grant playing an angel.  I just can't see any woman getting all worked up over David Niven, lol.
