Beyond Tomorrow (1940)

Veteran performer Charles Winninger steals almost every scene in this fantasy romance with a large ensemble cast. Definitely a B movie, but I enjoyed it, despite many missed opportunities to add comic touches. This BW movie is absolutely a drama, and contains downright morose moments. Again, Winninger saves it with his angelic acting (pun intended: he plays a spirit in the 2nd half). There's a lovely song about raining dreams halfway through, and the bowling sequence is fun. Overall, I would give it thumbs up.
