More about the book

The narrative explores the creation of a controversial film, The Miracle, featuring iconic figures like Anna Magnani and Federico Fellini. Accused of sacrilege, the film ignited a landmark legal battle over free speech in cinema, culminating in a significant U.S. Supreme Court case shortly after its New York premiere. Dr. Johnson's account reveals the intense struggle for artistic freedom and its lasting impact, shedding light on a pivotal moment in film history and the legacy of the author's father.
