Michael is a 1996 American fantasy comedy film directed by Nora Ephron who also co-wrote the script. The film stars John Travolta as the Archangel Michael, a crass and uncouth but wise and well-meaning warrior who is sent to Earth to do various tasks, including mending some wounded hearts. The cast also includes Jean Stapleton, Andie MacDowell, William Hurt, Bob Hoskins, Joey Lauren Adams, and Robert Pastorelli as people who cross Michael's path. The original music score was composed by Randy Newman. The dance scene and other location shots were filmed at the community center of Holy Trinity Catholic Church in New Corn Hill, Texas, and on country roads near Walburg, Texas, as well as at Texas' Gruene Hall. Michael was released on December 25, 1996 by New Line Cinema in the United States and Canada, and by Turner Pictures Worldwide Distribution in other territories. Critical reviews were mixed to negative, but the film was a commercial success.
