Product: Moonstruck (1987)
Rating: 5.0
Great for homesick Northeasterners of a certain age
When this film first came out, I enjoyed it but didn't think it was anything special. Then, after spending 20 years away from the NYC area where I grew up, and turning 40, I saw it again. What a GREAT picture! If you're old enough to "get it", be sure to pay special attention to the three older couples in the film (Cher's parents, her aunt and uncle, and the older couple in the liquor store). These couples embody married love, with all its ups and downs (especially the ups). This film is a great antidepressant, with no side effects, deductibles, or co-payments. Enjoy!
