A mite stagy with occasional theatrical performances but still a compelling allegory about the mysteries of life and death.

Douglas Pratt 13 Jun 2007

A lofty but transfixing allegory, the film remains captivating because its central plot device is so different from most movies, then or now.

Another reviewer wrote that this movie is the definition of stilted. I was thinking the exact same thing when I watched it.

A timeless classic that deserves a space in your movie collection. Death Takes a Holiday is now permanently included in my list of All-Time Favorite Movies. The film is unique, morbidly funny, and every scene is just so delicious to watch. To see Death as a human, tasting emotions, questioning his building feelings for a woman, and his leniency or indulgence of human idiosyncracies - it's truly delightful. Each scene I was engrossed, both by the dialogue and acting, as well as the lavishness of the setting that immediately transports me into that world. I also loved the opening credits, quirky fun. While I have liked Meet Joe Black despite of its flaws & cop out feel-good ending, Death Takes A Holiday is far more superior in its execution.. the script may be a bit stilted, the plot more straightforward and simple, but what made this film better in my opinion is the cast and its morbid humor. Pitt's pretty boy, slightly insipid Death could never compete with March's sexy-in-a-Cary Grant/Sean Connery-way, charming naivete, & charismatic portrayal as Death.

A simple and lovely film. It's amazing how its subtlety is so beautiful. Fredric March is fantastic, and Evelyn Venable is charming.
