“Whenever a good child dies, an angel of God comes down from Heaven and takes the child in his arms and spreads out his great white wings and flies with her over all the places that she loved during her life.. And then the child carries a large handful of flowers up to God.”
Annalise Hansen (the brilliant Vanessa Redgrave) quotes from The Angel by Anderson with heart felt emotion to Detective Jerry Black (Jack Nicholson) in his search for a child killer, in Sean Penn’s controversial film The Pledge.
