The movie Miracle Run is a true story about the lives of two autistics from childhood through high school. Unlike the movie Rainman, these autistics are more like us. They are higher functioning and appear much more normal than Rain Man. I felt like I was watching my own childhood when I saw this movie.

Miracle Run Info - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0419967/
Plot Summary - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0419967/plotsummary

Scheduled on the Lifetime Movie Network (not the regular Lifetime channel) for February 8th at 8:00pm ET

I watched it before. It's alot better than the other Lifetime movies.

I agree with you about this movie. Really enjoyed it.

The kid who was the runner was so good that I wondered if he was an actor or a real autistic. You all know him very well now, it's Zac Efron, before he did "High School Musical." :D
