THE MIRACLE CLUB

6975
I’ve become wary of films like The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel 2 that offer leading roles to veteran actors and coast on the goodwill they have built up with audiences over many decades’ time. The Miracle Club isn’t exploitive of its eminent cast,…

‘THEATER CAMP’ HAS SURPRISES IN STORE
