Down To Earth - Ritorno dal paradiso (2001)
Lo sconosciuto comico di colore Lance Barton sa bene cosa significa morire sul palcoscenico. Ma quando la sua vita prende una svolta inattesa – in direzione del paradiso –, Lance è convinto che si tratti di un errore. Miracolosamente ha ragione! Un angelo spiega a Lance che, in effetti, è stato “prelevato” prematuramente, ma gli assicura anche che potrà tornare sulla terra: nel vecchio corpo di un miliardario bianco senza scrupoli! In questa improbabile reincarnazione Lance imbocca la divertentissima strada che porta alla realizzazione del suo sogno di successo e, lungo il cammino, scoprirà la persona che non avrebbe mai immaginato di essere.
