Movie Info
Miracle Mile starts conventionally enough, with bashful musician Anthony Edwards going ga-ga over waitress Mare Winningham. After a pleasant if somewhat quirky day together, Edwards and Winningham plan a tete-a-tete at the all-night restaurant where the girl works. While preparing to call her on a pay phone, Edwards intercepts a frantic call from a soldier stationed at a Midwestern missile silo. The message: nuclear warheads have been launched, and it's only 70 minutes to Armageddon! This

By focusing one frantic couple's attempts to salvage their future together it channels Cold War anxieties into something beautiful.
Monograph for MIRACLE MILE now available.
Mile still packs a wallop, especially when everything goes to hell and our lovers are forced to confront their mortality. The gorgeous, unbearable feeling of doom that De Jarnatt evokes is, well, miraculous.
nightmareous
Holy God, somebody showed me this depressing on my birthday long ago. I decided afterwards they didn't like me very much.
Ridiculous nuclear holocaust tale
A magnificent movie.....you'll never forget it...Anthony Edwards is amazing
ethereal and memorable
Surprisingly good little film, if too bleak to be any fun.
A strikingly original, if relentlessly bleak, nuclear thriller.
