This was a good movie. I really like Campbell Scott's roll in it.

Sorry, didn't see this post when I posted this. I have to agree with Sue. It's a good movie.
A very enjoyable film. We were at my mom's over the weekend and scoping out a film we'd all enjoy. Dan found St. Ralph and we took it on a whim. Here's the gist: Ralph attends Catholic school. His father died in a war and his mother is dying of cancer. The nurse informs him that it will take a miracle to save his mother's life. Ralph, who is an immensely enjoyable character -- witty, sarcastic, charming -- pursues his miracle in the form of winning the Boston marathon with the help of the cross country coach, a former Olympic marathoner turned priest who also has a few dreams to capture! It's wonderful watching this movie unfold and rooting for Ralph to win one of the biggest races in the US. Improbable, right, but that's why it'd be a miracle.
Great film.
