Angelic Beauty: Well, she is played by Emmanuelle Béart. It helps that the Soft Focus gives the Angel “a heavenly glow”. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: The Angel might look and act innocent, but if anyone tries to hurt Jim, she’s not afraid to unleash her wrath on them. Not only does the Angel use the power of Invisibility to throw Patty on the ground and then literally kick Patty’s butt but she also forces rain clouds to remain above the heads of Patty and her father wherever they go. | |
