Miracle in East Texas
Based on actual accounts, this is the tale of two aging con-men at the dawn of the Great Depression and the biggest oil strike in the history of the world.
Irving Tanner, Jr. (Lou Gossett, Jr.) recounts the 1930 legend. Times are hard, when the unluckiest wildcatter in the world, Dad Everett (John Ratzenberger) teams up with Doc Boyd (Kevin Sorbo), a charming snake oil salesman. Together they convince several new widows (Sam Sorbo, Paula Boudreau, and others) to invest in their worthless oil wells.
Then, the unthinkable happens! Our two Casanovas face a challenge: declare another dry hole for a clean escape, or bring the well in like genuine oil men, and likely spend the rest of their lives in jail?
Meanwhile, some of their angry investors (Tyler Mane) are fixing to do something about their scheming.
This mostly true story will make you laugh, shed a tear, and give you pride in the God-Blessed American way.

“The ending in MIRACLE IN EAST TEXAS is funny, emotional, and redemptive. If you’re looking for a good time at the movie theater, MIRACLE IN EAST TEXAS just may be your cup of Texas tea. That’s oil to you city slickers, aka black gold!”
