A semi-sequel to Here Comes Mr. Jordan, Columbia’s Down to Earth is a camp- and kitsch-lover’s delight. More beautiful than ever, Rita Hayworth stars as Terpsichore, the Goddess of Dance. From her perch Up Above, Terpsichore discovers that Broadway producer Danny Miller (Larry Parks) intends to put together a musical satire, lampooning herself and her fellow Greek Gods. Eliciting the aid of Heavenly emissary Mr. Jordan (Roland Culver, taking over from the earlier film’s Claude Rains), Terpsichore descends to Earth in human form, landing a role in Miller’s play. Through her bewitching influence, Miller agrees to abandon his plans for a satire, transforming his production into a portentiously serious “work of art”-which lays a large and noxious egg with the opening-night crowd. Somehow, our ethereal heroine manages to set things right, but there’s still one nagging problem: Will she, a goddess, ever be permitted to fall in love with a mere mortal like Miller? Repeating their Here Comes Mr. Jordan roles, James Gleason and Edward Everett Horton appear respectively as the eternally flustered Max Corkle (formerly a fight promoter, now a theatrical agent) and the pompous, rule-bound Heavenly messenger #7013. Silly but immensely entertaining, Down to Earth was remade as the sillier but decidedly less entertaining Xanadu in 1980., A sort-of sequel to 1941’s divine comedy “Here Comes Mr. Jordan” follows the goddess Terpsichore as she visits Earth and gets involved with the production of a Broadway musical. James Gleason and Edward Everett Horton reprise the characters they played in “…Mr. Jordan” and Alexander Hall directed both films.
