Angel on My Shoulder is an engaging fantasy that is often overlooked due to its public domain status. But no one should overlook a film with Claude Rains in it. Here he has a major role as Nick, the Devil, which he plays with obvious enjoyment. The plot is far from novel in cinematic history, but is at least a bit of a twist on the standard formulation. Production values are merely average. VCI’s DVD presentation, which was released almost two years ago, is the best version of the film that I’ve seen so far, despite its limitations. Recommended.
