Do your best to stay in the best physical health you can manage. Mental health, too. Read books by early authors. HG Wells, Jack London, etc. they will transport you to other times, other places. They will ring true because the authors were of those times and places. Vicarious adventure is better than no adventure at all. Appreciate every sunrise and sunset, even in the rain. Bonne chance.

Great example of when Narcissist people and codependency as well as home life slavery was all the rage.

I like how his Excellency (likely the devil) is shown as a kinda "decent representative", as though all the "clashes between god and the devil, heaven and hell" etc were actually more like mere "civilized disagreements" or "business disagreements" and religious nutcases just blow it out of all proportion. It'd be nice, if there is an afterlife, that it may actually have been like this. Truth be told I guess the film had to be this ubpeat as WW2 was raging while this was being made.

My favorite Lubitsch movie. Warren Beattys movie is a remake of the movie "Here comes Mr. Jordan" based on a book entitled "HEAVEN CAN WAIT" but Lubitsch had already used this title for his movie. Beatty dediced to stick with the original title. The original ending of the Lubitsch movie obviously had been quite different: (spoiler alert!!!): Ameche gets in the lift, up goes lift; lift stops, beautiful young woman enters but she has to go down to hell. Ameche looks at her and decides to go to hell again, saying "Heaven can wait", that´s obviously the intented ending and why Lubitsch chose those last words as title for his movie. Hope we will be able some day to watch that ending.

The title suggests that Heaven had to wait for Henry because he seemed to go to his wrong destination of Hell. In reality God doesn't make mistakes and souls don't end up at their wrong destination for eternity. The devil hates everyone so the fact that he was kind and polite to Henry gives the wrong impression of him. The movie was made for enjoyment though.
