Cheryl-
You are looking for "Made in Heaven" (1987), starring Timothy Hutton as Mike, who dies rescuing a family. In Heaven, he falls in love with and marries Annie (played by Kelly McGillis) a new soul who has never been to Earth. When Annie leaves Heaven, Mike cannot be without her so he asks to be sent back to Earth. His angel agrees but he only has 30 years to find her or they will both have unhappy lives with other people.
While you can still find this movie in VHS format on sites like Amazon, it is more difficult to find on DVD.
Happy Viewing!

Romantic films from the 70's to present, including made for TV movies, mini-series and some foreign films. I can answer questions about popular romantic films before that time but more esoteric films are outside my range of expertise.
