I insist I'm not a Nicholas Cage fan, even though he appears in two of my very favorite films: "Raising Arizona," and "Moonstruck." His real talent must be knowing how to pick scripts. The subject of this film is love in all its wondrous permutations. Cher is smart, sassy, vulnerable and beautiful, and she deserved the Academy Award for her performance. But what I love most about this story is "Cosmo's moon," the implication of the concept, and the magical way in which an actor pronounced those words. And maybe the dogs.
