Here Comes Mr. Jordan
1941 · 94 MIN · IMDB 7.5 · 7,624 VOTES · DIR. Alexander Hall
Overview
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?

00:02:07 - Oh, he's pretty good, isn't he? - Come on, let him have it.
00:06:44 And you most certainly are. Otherwise I shouldn't have taken you.
00:10:09 Mr. Pendleton, I feel I owe you an apology.
00:13:53 Hello, fellows.
00:17:36 You know there wasn't a decent physique in the whole bunch, Mr. Jordan.
00:21:41 - Miss Bette Logan to see Mr. Farnsworth. - Wait, Joe.
00:25:32 - You hear that? - You want to help her...
00:30:42 There's no help for you.
00:34:25 Wait.
00:38:19 Don't you feel you ought to think this over first?
00:42:26 What are we waiting for? Let's take a look at this Australian fellow.
00:46:23 - Yeah, that Australian guy. - If you recall, yes.
00:50:17 - You're nuts, Mr. Farnsworth. - Wait a minute now, Max.
00:53:51 Maybe I'm somebody else, too. Ask him. No, don't.
00:57:46 No, come to think of it, I ain't going your way, am I?
01:01:13 I might get a notion that I'd like to do some fighting.
01:05:51 What do you want, Mr. Jordan?
01:10:06 He's disappeared, and I think it's foul play...
01:14:14 that he wanted to marry her, and asked me to divorce him.
01:17:26 - What could have happened? ...the side of Murdock's head.
01:21:27 How do you get that way? I'm your manager.
01:25:10 This is your destiny, Joe. You're back on your own road.
01:29:01 I got a contract.
