"travolta is magic as an angel with a devilish side." - roger ebert, "siskel & ebert"

would-be ghosts. ufo voyagers. a chicken that pecks out moonlight sonata on the piano - blindfolded! they're the kind of stories that keep the national mirror in the nation's shopping carts. and they're kind of stories that make the tabloid's reporters think they've heard and seen it all.but that's before they meet michael. he may be a grubby party animal who knows his way around a dance floor, but michael is very much an angel. and with john travolta in the title role, michael is very much a devine romantic comedy, directed by nora ephron (sleepless in seattle). william hurt, andie macdowell and robert pastorelli are writers sent by boss bob hoskins to get an exclusive on the heavenly visitor. the journalists want a page-one scoop. but their subject has a far more joyous and life-affirming plan in mind.
