Synopsis
Miracle Mile (1989) is a thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Steve De Jarnatt and starring Anthony Edwards and Mare Winningham. Harry Washello has just met the woman he's been looking for his whole life. Then a wrong number at a payphone tells him nuclear missiles are 70 minutes out.
He doesn't know if the voice on the line is real or the raving of a stranger. He acts anyway. The film traps Harry — and the viewer — inside a single Los Angeles neighborhood as rumour spreads faster than any evacuation plan, and ordinary people do extraordinary, terrible things when they think the world is ending.
What makes the film stick is its refusal to resolve the central question: was any of it true? De Jarnatt shot it as a clock-countdown love story that gradually collapses into something rawer and darker. Stream Miracle Mile (1989) online on iFILM.
