God! Oh Summary
MPAA Rating: PG
Director: Carl Reiner
Genres: Comedy, Fantasy
Rating:

Adapted by Larry_Gelbart from the novel by Avery Corman, the film stars John_Denver as Jerry Landers, the assistant manager of a grocery store who is chosen by God (George_Burns) to spread the Word to the rest of the world. Not surprisingly, Jerry is soon labelled a basket case: even his loving wife Bobbie (Teri_Garr) doubts her husband's sanity. But there's enough evidence on Jerry's side for a panel of prominent clerics to demand that the hapless fellow prove in court that he's the agent of God. Donald_Pleasence was supposed to have an extended supporting role in the film, but the first cut ran too long, and Pleasence's dialogue was eliminated -- but not Pleasence himself, who retains his prominent billing and is seen doing precisely nothing in several scenes. Netting 30 million on its first run, Oh_God was followed by two lesser sequels, both featuring Burns. Hal Erickson, Rovi
