You've been crying for something "different." Here you have it. The Miracle Man is an unusual picture. It is a great picture. And George Loane Tucker is its director.

The pictorial quality seems to hold a place equal to that of the dramatic values In this picture. Many of the shots reveal a talent for composition that is rare.

The story is of interest to believer and unbeliever alike. There is a human interest to plot that cannot fail but grip man, woman or child.
