Sister Fallon, a young woman with a gift for religious oratory, gains fame through the efforts of an unsavory promoter who stages phony "faith healings" during her services. At first seduced by the money, she soon grows weary of the deception and tries to escape the racket, a situation that becomes a genuine trial by fire. Loosely inspired by the famous California evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson and Sinclair Lewis's novel ELMER GANTRY, THE MIRACLE WOMAN was one of Capra's few box office failures for Columbia Pictures, but it remains a fascinating expose of religious charlatans and phony faith healers.
