The Angel Levine starring Zero Mostel and Harry Belafonte is a forgotten gem that deserves an audience. Although flawed, the film is a great discussion on race, religion and the role we all play. Much of the movie talks about hope and the lack of. Do we believe in Angels and are we willing to believe are questions the audience is asked. The theme of death is apparent throughout the movie as all the characters are dealing with death one way or another. What makes this movie remarkable is that the storyline captures the truth on how we perceive death as much as we do life.
