the praise of critics. In many ways, wrote Claudia Puig
of USA Today, "Miracle belongs to Kurt Russell. Roger
Ebert of the Chicago Sun Times wrote, Russell does real
acting here. Elvis Mitchell of The New York Times wrote,
Mr. Russells cagey and remote performance gives Miracle its few breezes of fresh, albeit methane-scented, air.
In 2006, Russell revealed that he was the director of
Tombstone, not George P. Cosmatos, as credited.[18]
According to Russell, Cosmatos was recommended by
Sylvester Stallone and was, in eect, a ghost director,
much as he had been for Rambo: First Blood Part II.
Russell said he promised Cosmatos he would keep it a
secret as long as Cosmatos was alive; Cosmatos died in
April 2005.[18] Russell owns the rights to the masters and
makes reference to possibly re-editing the lm, as he was
not originally involved in the editing.[18]
