Boxer Joe Pendleton, flying to his next fight, crashes…because a Heavenly Messenger, new on the job, snatched Joe's spirit prematurely from his body. Before the matter can be rectified, Joe's body is cremated; so the celestial Mr. Jordan grants him the use of the body of wealthy Bruce Farnsworth, who's just been murdered by his wife. Joe tries to remake Farnsworth's unworthy life in his own clean-cut image, but then falls in love; and what about that murderous wife?

IMDB - Won 2 Oscars

Adapted from Harry Segall's play, the soul of a boxer is taken from his body too soon and must find another body to fulfill his destiny.

Manager Max Corkle (James Gleason) asks his boxer Joe Pendleton (Robert Montgomery) not to fly. Joe plays his saxophone, and the plane crashes. On clouds Messenger 7013 (Edward Everett Horton) and his boss Mr. Jordan (Claude Rains) tell Joe he is dead as people board a plane. Joe says it is a mistake, and 7013 took him before he was dead. Mr. Jordan learns that Joe has fifty more years and tells 7013 to take him back. They look for his body and can't be seen or heard by others. They go to Max and learn Joe's body was cremated. Mr. Jordan says he'll get Joe another body; Joe says his body was in top shape.

Joe says he will for a while. Butler Sisk (Halliwell Hobbes) calls Farnsworth, and Joe becomes him. Tony and Julia are shocked to see Farnsworth, who tells Bette it will be all right. She does not believe him and leaves angrily. Sisk gives Farnsworth his sax, and Farnsworth tells Tony to get Logan out of jail. Tony says it will cost millions; but Farnsworth can afford it and gets Logan freed. Farnsworth's board complains their stock is going down; but he wants to box and asks Mr. Jordan for a better body. 7013 found a good body; but Bette comes in and thanks Farnsworth, who decides to stay himself.

At a boxing match Joe goes back for his sax and sees Max looking for him and arguing with Inspector Williams (Donald MacBride). Julia says that Farnsworth asked her for a divorce so he could marry Bette. Max says that Tony and Julia drowned Farnsworth before, confusing Williams. Joe gets Max to turn on the fight. Mr. Jordan has Joe replace boxer Murdoch, who is shot for betraying gamblers. Joe wins the championship as Murdoch and asks for his sax. Max goes to Murdoch and finds he is Joe, who tells him where Farnsworth's body is. Mr. Jordan tells Joe he is Murdoch but will lose his memory as Joe. Max realizes that Murdoch is no longer Joe, but Murdoch hires him. Murdoch runs into Bette, and they are drawn to each other even though they haven't met. Mr. Jordan smiles.

This unusual spiritual fantasy rings true to people who intuitively know they are souls in bodies that may be changed from life to life. As Mr. Jordan says, no one is ever cheated (in the long run).

Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941) [ReUp]

A cocky prizefighter on his way to the title crashes his self-piloted plane after his latest bout. Upon arriving in heaven, it is determined that his "messenger" pulled his soul from his body too quickly and, according to schedule, he still had another 50 years on earth. Now, it is owed him a new body and the proper life span, and he is given that of a millionaire chiseler who has just been murdered by his wife and her lover. Now, while preparing his new self for a title fight, he begins to correct the wrongs by the previous owner and romance a sweet girl who's father he had put the screws to. "Here Comes Mr. Jordan" is a highly entertaining and awfully complex lighthearted tale.

Plot contrivances abound, but thanks to the sincerity of its cast, the film never ceases to be engaging. Robert Montgomery is extremely likable in the lead as the street tough Joe Pendleton and is surrounded by a wealth of supporting players. Claude Rains is his usual inimitable self as the title heavenly boss and Edward Everett Horton is funny as his bumbling messenger. Evelyn Keyes plays the love interest well and James Gleason is a particular standout as Montgomery's disbelieving manager. "Here Comes Mr. Jordan" is old fashioned, often unrestrained, but always fun and engaging entertainment.
