Open in HeraeAbout the film
Heaven Can Wait is a 1943 American supernatural romantic comedy-drama film produced and directed by Ernst Lubitsch and starring Gene Tierney, Don Ameche, and Charles Coburn. The film follows Henry Van Cleve, a man brought up in late 19th-century New York who, upon his death in 1942, attempts to argue to Satan that he deserves to be in Hell based on his life choices. The screenplay by Samson Raphaelson is based on the play Birthday by Ladislaus Bus-Fekete. The music score was by Alfred Newman and the cinematography by Edward Cronjager. The film has no connection to the fantasy-based stage play of the same title that was adapted as the film Here Comes Mr. Jordan (itself also a Best Picture nominee), nor remakes of Mr. Jordan using the play's original title, including the 1978 film, Heaven Can Wait.

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens Heaven Can Wait on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
