Waiting for the Miracle to Come

This film, while not perfectly written, is an beautiful, emotionally nuanced study of life and loss, accentuated by the understated acting of the rising star of "Blow The Man Down," Sophie Lowe. Her presence gives a luminescence to the earlier scenes that keeps one's attention as the story slowly unfolds. Add in the fine acting work by Charlotte Rampling and Willie Nelson, and the dreamy lighting and mood achieved by documentary veteran Lian Lunson, and you have all the elements of a impressive feature debut.

She was at shock mode all through the movie, hardly spoke, and only with weak and fainted voice. She missed it all, she didn't get it. She didn't understand the task she had coz wasn't brilliant at all. Late darling, you reacted too late, shameful, is a pity you been such a zombie instead of running and screaming about what you'd found out!!!

'Waiting for the Miracle to Come' was a breath of fresh air. Theres such cynicism from movie goers and 'reviewers' nowadays. If a film isn't a part of the DC/Marvel world, full of formulaic explosions adolescent story lines it seems to get relegated to the back stacks immediately. This movie had no superheroes, instead just a touching story, a wholesome narrative of believing in something and some great acting. Specifically Willie Nelson and Charlotte Rampling playing off each other but especially Sile Bermingham who really moved me at the end of the film -some fantastic stuff there.

"Waiting for the Miracle to Come" is a nice fairy tale of a movie. It's slow in pace, but beautiful to look at. The real emotional gravity comes when Sile Bermingham is on screen! Also, Willie Nelson is a stand out in a very nuanced role. Worth a watch.

I daresay my opinion is only one of the nine billion that there are on this Earth, but I found this picture one of the most boring and hard to understand ones I've looked at in a long time. I feel that watching paint dry might have been more interesting.

Compounding my inability to completely understand the story was that some of the lines were mumbled by the leading lass to the point of being incomprehensible.

No doubt it'll most probably be lauded as an art film by the Chardonnay set.
