I had watched in my tender age in 1983 and due my religion's roots on Catholic Church I'd gave a great dimension on it, regarding it with a hefty meaning for my believers, for many years l've been looking for this hard to find movie, now I'd got an average copy on DVD-R taped from cable TV, revisiting this long awaited "The Miracle", sadly I have realized that my early feelings was wrong, this picture walks in a fake premise of Puritanism, the Novice Teresa (Carroll Baker) clearly had an ambiguous personality, all this took place at in the Valley of Miraflores in Spain during the Napoleonic wars at its time trespassing the Spanish territory, already aware of such menacing movement the British Army fleetingly sent a massive troops to face the greed French Emperor, in this tricky environment the attractive Novice Teresa meets the gallant Captain Michael Stuart (Roger Moore) whom she falling in love at first glance, after one battle the brave Captain was sternly injured, thus she makes a promise to Madonna of the Miraflores, if he survives she'll gives her vows to be a Nun, he recovers and goes back to the battle, however she leaves the Convent trying to meet his beloved soldier, thereupon the holly Madonna disappears from the shrine and embodies the Teresa's absent, she follows the Gypsies, soon appears Michael's belongs with a Gypsy's member who told to her that all objects was found with a dead body of a British soldier, upon this awful reality she breaks her previous vows gave to Madonna, becoming a mundane girl having several love affairs, always they end up on a tragic death, the times goes by, four years precisely at Brussels she finally meets the still alive now General Michael, somehow she heard an odd story when Michael visited her at convent, what he saw her there, then undermined about that she returns to Valley of the Miraflores where has ongoing a hard dry season for exact last four years, none a single drop of water fallen there, plenty unsatisfactory outcome and too much fanciful, no make sense whatever yours persuasions, anyone has to pay for others fails, it sounds fully contradictory at God's sight, thus there no miracle!!!
