The Miracle Club
Posted on by toliverjr
Ballyfermot, Ireland, 1960. A hard-knocks community in outer Dublin marches to its own beat, rooted in traditions of loyalty, faith, and togetherness. There’s just on tantalizing dream for the women of Ballyfermot to taste freedom and escape the gauntlet of domestic life: to win a pilgrimage to the sacred French town of Lourdes. And with a little benevolent interference from their cheeky and rebellious priest, close friends Lily, Eileen, Dolly, and Sheila are the ‘lucky’ few to win this ticket of a lifetime at their riotous local raffle night. Starring Laura Linney, Maggie Smith, and Kathy Bates.
(PG-13, 91 min.)
