On this day, November 20, 1987, Date with an Angel premiered in theaters. Directed by Tom McLoughlin, this romantic fantasy starred Michael E. Knight, Phoebe Cates, and Emmanuelle Béart in a whimsical story about a man who discovers a real-life angel after a bachelor party gone wrong.

Despite its unique premise and star power, the film underperformed at the box office, grossing just $1.9 million against an $8 million budget. However, it remains a lighthearted and nostalgic favorite for fans of 80s romantic comedies with a supernatural twist.

Have you seen Date with an Angel? Do you think it deserved more attention, or was its premise too far-fetched?
