It’s a 1980’s -maybe early 90’s movie and the only thing I can remember is that this mans wife and kid(s) take off and die in a car accident. I think it might have an angel or ghost that is helping him and he wanted her to bring back his family and she said “ I can’t break the rules and bring them back but I can bend them …. she took him back in time for him to stop them from leaving in the car.
i can’t not find this.
