So an intro to once upon a time on miracle mile...

March 19, 2024

Once Upon a Time on Miracle Mile is a two-hour psychological drama/comedy that’s also the best dance party ever.

A Brazilian-Jewish family in 1989 on Miracle Mile finds themselves in a situation that no family would ever want to be in, and guess what? This genre-bender really happened though you might not believe it, you just might not, but it did.

Inspired by family films of the era and “Through the Years” by Kenny Loggins, prepare to be swept away by the next family classic…that law schools might actually use…

The look between the kids when Larry says “if you weren’t my sister,” and the son who becomes a shooter in Steve Martin’s psychological nightmare in Parenthood…prepare to take cover…the crazy lady in The Hand that Rocks the Cradle will meet Shelley Long in Troop Beverly Hills…while Nina dances The Forbidden Dance in her room, regardless, in a film hilariously dedicated to the preservation of the rain forest…and Spielberg watches the movie of his family with a fairytale touch in The Fabelmans that Lynch is also in …so time to put up another epic family portrait with the prodigal kids: The Royal Tanenbaums…but this time give them a phone so they can toss it to one another: call social services? The cops? Foster care?

Emotional, hilarious, and heartbreaking with outrageous, unforgettable characters, Once Upon a Time on Miracle Mile is an epic love song to the family genre and a psychological drama that one family really went through.

So I’ll let that one float just because Lynch’s intro is so concise.
