Episode 182: The Bishop's Wife (1947)

maverickEpisode 182: It's time again for our December holiday pairing! This year, we begin with a true classic, 1947's "The Bishop's Wife." Directed by Henry Koster and starring Cary Grant, Loretta Young, and David Niven, this film tells the story of Bishop Henry Brougham, a devout and good man nearing the end of his energy, who prays for guidance amidst the struggles of finding funding for a new cathedral. His wife, Julia, fears that the Bishop may be drifting away from his marriage, his daughter, and the true meaning of his congregation and community. Enter Dudley, an oddly charming gentleman who befriends everyone he meets, and begins to turn the Brougham's lives upside-down, in a good way. Will Dudley be able to help Henry and Julia sort through their assorted problems while still guiding them toward a happy ending for all? You'll have to watch the movie (and listen to the podcast) to find out!
