The Awful Truth (1937) Leo Mccarey, Irene Dunne, Cary Grant, Ralph Bellamy, Comedy, Romance

Limited to 500 copies.

Although signed to the infamous Metal Blade Records (known for releasing albums by Slayer, Fates Warning, Voivod, etc.), The Awful Truth's eponymous album featured poetic lyrics expressing a sincere faith. A key example is “Ghost of Heaven”:
