I am catching this movie on the DISH and I have not seen it for a while. This is an oldie but goodie and I have always loved this movie. All the acting is good in this and it is a story of love from many angles and an Italian-American family in NY. Gorgeous opera music dotted throughout the story and a tour de force, angry performance by Nicolas Cage. Cher is great in this as the girl who comes alive in love in this. So much to love about this film. Olympia Dukakis has the great lines.

Overall rating:
Excellent and holds up to the years.

Recommend:
Totally.

Warnings:
Romantic.
