This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
The Preacher's Wife is a 1996 American Christmas fantasy comedy-drama film directed by Penny Marshall and starring Denzel Washington, Whitney Houston (in her last film released during her lifetime), and Courtney B. Vance. It is a remake of the 1947 film The Bishop's Wife, which in turn was based on the 1928 novel of the same name by Robert Nathan.
It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Musical or Comedy Score. The film was nominated for six NAACP Image Awards, including Outstanding Motion Picture, and won two—for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture (Whitney Houston) and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture (Loretta Devine). In addition, the film won two awards at the Movieguide Awards, including the Epiphany Award for Most Inspiring Movie and the Best Movie for Families Award.
Houston recorded the movie soundtrack and it became the best-selling gospel album of all time, with over 6 million copies. The album and film cemented Houston’s status as a pop culture icon.
