Michael

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 the 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 divine 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.
