YMMV / Date with an Angel

• Awesome Music:
  • Steve Winwood’s “The Finer Things”
  • “I Come Alive” and “Someone Who Believes in You”, both of which are sung by Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply and play over the end credits
• Values Dissonance: Jim’s friends staging a fake terrorist attack at Patty’s house party by using fake guns and hand grenades, and “kidnapping” Jim would not be seen as funny nowadays, especially in a post-9/11 world.
• Visual Effects of Awesome: The visual effects for the Angel’s wings are still impressive after all these decades. Of course, it helps that the wing effects were produced at Boss Film Studios under the supervision of Oscar-winning Visual Effects Supervisor Richard Edlund.
