...Heaven (20th Century-Fox) is an obviously costly production of the best-selling (more than a million copies) novel by Ben Ames Williams. The story's central idea might be plausible enough in a dramatically lighted black-&-white picture or in a radio show with plenty of organ background.

Imitators have had their men tune off key, nick their reeds and pour warm milk into the bells of their saxophones, but they have never quite hit it. Guy says his sweet simple music is "for people already in love or potentially in love. . . . We try not to displease anyone...
