Miracle Mile (1988)

Posted on 02:31 by john cena
Essential Viewing
USA
Feature Film
Writer/Director: Steve De Jarnatt
Cinematographers: Theo Van de Sande, Dennis Weaver
Composers: Tangerine Dream
Cast: Anthony Edwards, Mare Winningham, John Agar, Lou Hancock, Mykelti Williamson, Denise Crosby, Robert DoQui, O-Lan Jones, Claude Earl Jones, Alan Rosenberg, Danny De La Paz, Diane Delano, Raphael Sbarge, Brian Thompson

De Jarnatt’s stunning apocalyptic drama, depicting a young musician’s attempts to save his new love after rumours of an impending nuclear strike begin to circulate, succeeds, thanks mainly to Tangerine Dream’s ethereal score, in capturing the dreamlike disbelievability of hard-to-comprehend events, and, with Edwards and Winningham’s touching performances, also manages to be ironically beautiful.
