Synopsis
The Third Miracle (1999) is a drama by director Agnieszka Holland that you can watch online on iFILM. Ed Harris plays Father Frank Shore, a priest so skilled at disproving supposed miracles that colleagues call him the "miracle killer" — a man whose faith is nearly spent, though he keeps turning up.
The Vatican sends him to Chicago to investigate a marble statue that reportedly weeps blood. Shore arrives expecting a quick debunking. Instead the files on a long-dead woman — a candidate for sainthood — pull him somewhere he didn't plan to go. Armin Mueller-Stahl plays the cardinal who would prefer the whole investigation buried. Anne Heche is the dead woman's daughter, and her scenes with Harris carry a charge the rest of the film builds toward.
Holland keeps everything in a grey zone: nothing confirmed, nothing quite dismissed. That ambiguity is where the story does its best work. Watch The Third Miracle (1999) online on iFILM.
