🎬🚨 Miracle Mile nuked screens on this day in 1988. An American apocalyptic thriller film written and directed by Steve De Jarnatt. The film stars Anthony Edwards and Mare Winningham. Its plot depicts the panic surrounding a supposed doomsday brought on by a sudden outbreak of war and its oncoming nuclear holocaust, taking place in a single day and mostly in real-time. The title is named after the Miracle Mile neighborhood of Los Angeles where most of the events take place. Before Miracle Mile was made, its production had been legendary in Hollywood for ten years. In 1983, it had been chosen by American Film magazine as one of the ten best unmade screenplays. Roger Ebert praised the film, claiming it had a “diabolical effectiveness” and a sense of “real terror”. In her review for the Washington Post, Rita Kempley wrote: “It seems [De Jarnatt]’s not committed to his story or his characters, but to the idea that he is saying something profound—which he isn’t.” —Wikipedia ⁣—saw this one back in the early 90s… that good old Cold War paranoia where folks actually pondered: how’d you spend your time if the nukes were inbound? …bleak and frantic.
