The Bishop's Wife.

An angel, coming to earth in the guise of a man, restores happiness to an overworked young bishop and his neglected family.

Bishop Henry Brougham (David Niven) is troubled with funding the building of a new cathedral. A suave angel named Dudley reveals his identity only to the clergyman. Dudley's mission is not to help construct a cathedral, but to spiritually guide Henry and the people around him. Henry becomes jealous and anxious for his unwelcome guest to finish and depart.
