When Harry (Anthony Edwards, Zodiac, ER) meets Julie (Mare Winningham, Turner & Hooch) at the La Brea Tar Pits, it s love at first sight. But when Harry s alarm clock fails to go off, he misses their scheduled date by several hours. Alone on a street corner at four in the morning, he answers a ringing pay phone and picks up a garbled message that all-out nuclear war is set to begin in an hour s time. With the clock ticking and the city spiralling into chaos, can Harry somehow track down Julie and get them both to safety before Armageddon?
In 1983, American Film magazine called Miracle Mile one of the ten best unproduced screenplays, though Hollywood baulked at its idiosyncratic mix of black comedy, romance and nuclear holocaust. Years later, writer Steve De Jarnatt (Cherry 2000) bought back the rights to his own script and in 1988 made the film on his own terms. The result is a madcap end-of-the-world adventure like no other, as hilarious as it is disturbing, featuring scintillating views of nocturnal LA and a hypnotic score by Tangerine Dream.

Underrated gem
I love this little film to death. Excellent chemistry between the leads, outstanding LA atmosphere, hypnotic score by Tangerine Dream and a script that keeps building momentum until the last second. Memorable.

Haunting and bleak, but beautiful
A great indie feeling movie. Something of a romantic comedy but set in the paranoid what-if scenario of a Cold War apocalypse. Stuck with me for a long time after. The soundtrack from Tangerine Dream gives it a vibe. It's just a gorgeous dreamlike movie. Tense and funny in a way that feels awkward and heartwarming, while being scary and upsetting. Really unique. Just have to watch it.
