Confusingly,
this is not a
remake, not of Ernst Lubitschís 1943 Heaven
Can Wait, but of the 1941 Here
Comes Mr Jordan.
Footballer Joe Pendleton (Warren
Beatty) is whisked away before his allotted time
by overenthusiastic angel Mr Jordan (James
Mason), The sumptuous mansion in which Warren
Beatty finds himself ensconced is the Filoli
Mansion, Canada Road, Woodside, off Highway
280 between San
Francisco and San Jose. The mansion, whose name
derives from the family motto: ëFight, Love, Lifeí,
was seen in the opening credits of TV soap Dynasty,
featured in Wayne
Wangís Joy Luck Club
and was more recently seen as Michael
Douglasí home in David
Fincher's The Game.
The football game was filmed at the Los
Angeles Memorial Coliseum, 3911 South Figueroa Street,
Exposition Park.
