Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.4|5.0 Starsìììì 

A Pocket Full of Miracles—inspirational WOW! entertainment—serves the best of Glen Ford and Bette Davis. Absolutely wonderful supporting cast that includes Peter Falk and Ann-Margaret. Clean, heartfelt storyline engages the heart with its surprisingly dramatic storyline. Good reminder about the important value of every human life.
