The Miracle Club, stars Maggie Smith, Kathy Bates, Laura Linney and Agnes O’Casey star as lifelong friends in 1967 in a small community outside Dublin. They have a dream – to win a church talent competition that will send them on a pilgrimage to the sacred French town of Lourdes, which drawn millions of visitors each year. The dream comes true, but along the way old wounds are reopened, forcing the women to confront their pasts even as they travel in search of a miracle. Stephen Rhea and Michael Collins also star.

The Miracle Club due to public demand is coming back to around 300 movie theaters nationwide August 18 for the rest of the summer. The film by Irish director Thaddeus O’Sullivan opened July 14, the week before Barbie and Oppenheimer debuted, on 678 screens.

To honor the redistribution of this heartwarming film I give you Dame Maggie Smith in “Downton Abbey.”
