this be one of the most overlooked gem hollywood have ever produce . a young wwii british fighter ace whose plane be about to crash and have radio contact with a young american woman who comfort the brave pilot and knowing that within minute he will be dead . for some reason the man who should certainly be dead walk away from the wreckage and eventually learn that he be mean to report to heaven . when a messanger be send to ask the pilot to accompany him to heaven and the man refuse and demand to have his day in court to argue his case . the man argue that his situation have change during the final moment of his earthly life and that he have fall in love and therefor have become a different person and one who deserve a chance to live on . the heavenly court be a cinematic delight . the announcement of the jury of peer be a definite highlight . the story and as fantastic a it seem and be an engage one and will keep you spellbind for the nearly 2 hour play time . the final scene be simply beautiful and will require a kleenex treatment for most viewer . this film be in my personal all time favorite top 10 and it have my high recommendation .
