I used this movie in conjunction with teaching A Prayer for Owen Meany, because of the many thematic parallels. My seniors really enjoyed this movie!
Summary of The Five People You Meet in Heaven
On his 83rd birthday, Eddie, a war vet and a maintenance worker at the Ruby Pier Amusement Park, dies while trying to save a girl who is sitting under a falling ride. When he awakens in the afterlife, he encounters 5 people with ties to his corporeal existence who help him understand the meaning of his life.Based on the bestseller by Mitch Albom (Tuesdays With Morrie), The Five People You Meet in Heaven takes up where It's A Wonderful Life left off. In the Capra classic, George Bailey gets a vision of life without him. In this Hallmark Hall of Fame production, Eddie (Jon Voight), an amusement park maintenance man and war veteran, ends up in Heaven after an accident takes his life. There he meets five people from his past: the Blue Man (Jeff Richards), the Captain (Michael Imperioli), Marguerite (Dagmara Dominczyk), Ruby (Ellen Burstyn), and Tala (Nicaela and Shelbie Weigel). Each shows him how he impacted their life or they his--and not always for the better. (In these flashbacks, Callahan Brebner and Steven Grayhm play the young Eddie.) The point may seem simplistic--everyone is connected--but The Five People You Meet in Heaven finds a unique and engaging way to make it. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
