Norman Jewison directs Cher, Nicolas Cage and Danny Aiello in this romantic comedy about a New York family of Italian-American’s led astray by the big full moon.

John Patrick Shanley’s script is a witty treat. A gorgeous, warm hug of a movie with enough salt and truth to make you feel that your heartstrings aren’t being yanked by a mercenary endeavour. A nice early full fat Cage performance really stokes the fire.
