Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaClarence's young appearance in this film (as opposed to the elderly Clarence originally portrayed by Henry Travers) is explained by establishing that angels get younger as time goes by (which is why Joseph, although several millennia older than Clarence, appears to be a young teenager).
- GoofsA factor in the story line that allowed Clarence to be portrayed by a young actor was that angels get younger as time goes by. This could not be possible as, within the Christian faith, God and the angels exist outside of time.

Featured review
A pale imitation of its predecessor.
'Clarence' is probably exactly how you'd imagine a sequel/spin-off to 1946's 'It's a Wonderful Life'. It's charm is completely lost, and while it does have some heart it fails to make an noteworthy impact.
Robert Carradine is, at least, passable with his performance as the titular character. He is fine. Kate Trotter is the 'best' of the rest. The plot is practically the same, though is obviously shrunk to fit into the requirements of a television film. It's less of a journey, for sure.
Ultimately, this is extremely pointless. It, admittedly, isn't awful though.
