Miracles Presented by The Hong Kong Cinema Club “Jackie Chan pays homage to classic Hollywood spectacle in this 1930s-set gangster-musical romp. An inspired reworking of a Damon Runyon story (previously filmed twice by Frank Capra as Lady For A Day and Pocketful Of Miracles), Miracles stars Chan as a naive country boy who inadvertently rises to become the leader of a Hong Kong underworld empire, all while attempting to help a kindly but poor flower seller make her dreams come true. Cited by Chan as a personal favorite among his own films, this is certainly one of the director-star’s most unique projects, blending his action-comedy thrills with heartwarming sentiment.” - Criterion Miracles will be presented uncut, from a recent 4K restoration, in its original Cantonese w/ English subtitles. Our event will include a preshow, trailer reel and themed-zine (Note: zines will be sold in-person). #### About the Show
