The Suicide Squad—An Overlooked and Underrated "Sequel"
Since Season 2 of Peacemaker is currently airing, let’s revisit the movie that started it all.
The Miracle of the Bells (1948)
The body of a young actress is brought to her home town by the man who loved her. He knows that she wanted all the church bells to ring for three days after she was buried, but is told that this will cost a lot of money. The checks that he writes to the various churches all bounce, but it is the weekend and, in desperation, he prays that a miracle will happen before the banks reopen. It does, but not in the way he hoped.
