Paul Muni, Anne Baxter and Claude Rains in Angel on My Shoulder (1946 Movie)

DVD: www.amazon.com thefilmarchive.org Angel on My Shoulder is a 1946 American fantasy film about a deal between the Devil and a dead man. It was an independent production, produced by Charles R.

Along the way, Kagle becomes acquainted with Barbara Foster (Anne Baxter), the judge's fiancée. He falls in love with her ...
