- Summary:
- 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
