Michael (1996)
Alright, folks, here it is: the movie where John Travolta plays an angel. Yes, it makes no sense. How can the defiler in Saturday Night Fever, the macho jerk in Grease, and the hitman in Pulp Fiction be taken seriously an angel? Well, perhaps that’s the entire point of the movie. Angels take mysterious forms, and you have to have complete faith even if it doesn’t make sense. So, when John drinks, smokes, and comes across as the complete opposite of what you’d expect of an angel, you have to strengthen your faith and keep believing. If you’re not in the mood for that, and you prefer your angels to look and act like Cary Grant, you’re not going to like this movie.
John is living with Jean Stapleton, and when a newspaper gets wind of the absurd story, they send a group of reporters to check it out. William Hurt, Andie MacDowell, and Robert Pastorelli are the skeptical team who are the first to witness John’s feathery wings coming out of his back. With such a huge piece of evidence staring them in the face, they’re forced to believe him, right? You’ll have to watch the movie to find out how they react to him, but keep in mind it’s a bit odd. I didn’t really like it, but then again, I’m more the Cary Grant type.
