Accadde in paradiso (1987)
Anni cinquanta. In una piccola cittadina della Pennsylvania, Mike Shea sogna di abbandonare la vita di provincia e di andare in California con la fidanzata Brenda Carlucci, ma Brenda accetta la proposta di matrimonio di un altro uomo, lasciando Mike da solo. Mike così decide di partire da solo. Lungo la strada, Mike si ferma a causa di un incidente stradale, prestando soccorso ad una donna ed ai suoi due bambini, salvando loro la vita, ma perdendo la sua, annegando. Si ritrova così in Paradiso, accolto da sua zia Lisa, che gli spiega come comportarsi nel nuovo luogo in cui si trova. Durante uno dei suoi giri, Mike incontra e si innamora di Annie Packert, un'anima non ancora nata.
