All the super lative adjectives at our command beggar de scription. It must be i seen, felt. The fact that "THE MIRACLE MAN" cost thousands of dollars to make, the fact that it was six months in the crucible of creation these things don't explain, they mere ly indicate the high, artistic conscience be hind this production.
