Program Description

Event Details

Learn the fascinating backstory of The Bishop’s Wife, a delightful holiday confection from 1947 starring Cary Grant, Loretta Young, and David Niven. There was much drama behind the scenes during production: Is it true that test audiences did not like the movie? Did this cause the director to be fired? Did Producer Samuel Goldwyn lose nearly one million dollars to reshoot the movie? Did an uncredited Billy Wilder (Some Like It Hot) punch up the script? Why was a “disclaimer” added to the Bishop’s Wife movie posters? Did Cary Grant dislike his role as an Angel from Heaven? Who was cast as the Bishop’s Wife before Loretta Young? Also, look for three stars from It’s a Wonderful Life in this film.
