But Not Goodbye

It’s the summer of 1910, and unbeknownst to him, Sam Griggs is not long for this world. If he had known he was going to die today, he might have made an effort to clean up the family finances, particularly the speculative real estate venture in which all their money is invested. He didn’t realize he’d taken his son’s life savings, too, and now that son won’t be able to pursue his life’s dream. The spirit of the newly-deceased Sam wants to try to fix the mess he’s made, but the spirit of Benjamin, his father, who died at 36 in a tavern brawl, arrives to help him "move along". Sam’s spirit watches helplessly as his family faces disaster, but just as his father predicted, it all works out for the best in this comedic fantasy from the screenwriter and director of "Miracle on 34th Street."
