Synopsis

"Miracle Mile" starts conventionally enough with bashful musician (Edwards) going ga-ga over waitress (Winningham). After a pleasant if somewhat quirky day together, Edward and Winningham plan a tete-a-tete at the all-night restaurant where the girl works. While preparing to call her on the pay phone, Edwards intercepts a frantic call from a soldier stationed at a midwestern missel silo. The message: nuclear warheads have been launched, and it's only 70 minutes to Armegeddon. The unsettling news casts severe doubts over the future of Edwards' and Winninghams' relationship, but they manage to touch base before the big bang. This is an optimistic slant ont he end of the world.
