Miracle Mile is a 1988 thriller film directed by Steve De Jarnatt, and starring Anthony Edwards and Mare Winningham that takes place mostly in real time. It is named after the Miracle Mile neighborhood of Los Angeles, where most of the action takes place.
James Hudson is Korean-American, driving a gypsy cab in L.A., using his Korean language skills to pick up fares at LAX's international terminal. One day he picks up a young Korean who's searching for her brother, given up for adoption 20 years before. Her English is poor, so she hires James to help. He gets her a room in a cheap, downtown hotel and drives her the next day to the county adoption office and to an old address of her brother's when he was adopted as a small boy. At that house, the residents are new and know nothing, but a boy on a swing triggers a childhood memory in James. Is a miracle of reunion and connection at hand in the City of the Angels? Written by
