Another Sunday afternoon, another classic movie. Especially since we are all still recovering from my sons 18th birthday party last night!
This one was not quite 50s, filmed in 1961 and set in the 20s, but some of the dresses are still 50s fo r some reason. A Pocket Full of Miracles, is an American comedy starring Glen Ford, Bette Davis, Hope Lange, Peter Falk and introducing Ann Margaret yes she gets to sing a little). The screen play title was ‘Lady for a Day’, which I think sounds much better and less cutesy.
Dave “the Dude” (Glenn Ford) is a successful, superstitious New York City boot-legger come gangster who buys apples from street peddler Apple Annie (Bette Davis) to bring him good luck. He believes that everything good that has happened to him, including meeting his soon to be wife, Queenie Martin (Hope Lange), is due to these daily apples.
