CINEMA PERFECTION
Impressive theme on miracles and the questionable perspective on faith. Super well-acted by all the stars led by Nora and the cast of thousands that gives one a news documentary feel. The mystery is gripping and one keeps guessing. Superbly remastered and the movie is so memorable.
