When MGM first released Moonstruck on DVD they inexplicably did so with an contaminated pan and scan transfer. They’ve rectified this region with a novel deluxe edition that restores its ample aspect ratio and with a collection of fresh extras. Moonstruck was the My Gigantic Rotund Geek Wedding of its day only infinitely better and about an Italian family as opposed to a Greek one. Watching Norman Jewison’s film again, you realize fair how powerful Nia Vardalos’ film is heavily indebted to it. If Moonstruck is La Boheme than Greek Wedding is Tony and Tina’s Wedding.

It’s time to exercise your stale disc as a coaster as this edition is definitely worth the double dip. MGM has taken TBS’ dinner and a movie to the next level by including three recipe cards with ravishing Italian meals so that you can do your hold cooking and eat it while watching the movie.
Carried over from the previous edition is the audio commentary by Cher, director Norman Jewison and screenwriter John Patrick Shanley. Both Jewison and Shanley talk about their fascination with death while Cher talks about the importance of costume and how it helps her salvage into character. This is a solid commentary with colorful observations and suitable anecdotes from everyone.

“Moonstruck: At the Heart of an Italian Family” takes us through the genesis of the film mixing interviews done at the time of filming (Cage and Cher) and original ones (Aiello and Dukakis) . There is broad, behind-the-scenes rehearsal footage as Jewison and Shanley hold us through the film telling several intelligent anecdotes.
“Pastas to Pastries: The Art of Magnificent Italian Food” is a tour of some of the best restaurants in Limited Italy, in particular on Mulberry Street. You have six different places to decide from and their chefs display how to compose a few choice foods guaranteed to fabricate you hungry. If you care for to cook and eat than this extra is for you.
Finally there is the “Music of Moonstruck” that examines the role that music plays in the movie. The first screening went badly because the music was all heinous.
A gargantuan flick. Five stars is not enough. Cher & Cage are awesome together. Gardenia & Dukakis (as Cher’s parents) are almost as radiant. The backdrops of Manhattan and Brooklyn witness terrific. Some vast & memorable scenes… 1. Cher meeting Cage for the first time in the bakery basement, 2. Cage expressing his cherish for her the morning after, 3. Dukakis & Mahoney having dinner together & walking home, 4. Cher & Cage, (and her father and his “date”) at the opera, and 5. The family sitting around the kitchen table when husband to-be Aiello shows up. Six Oscar nominations – and three awards. Cher & Dukakis were very deserving and this was easily the best screenplay of the year. How director Norman Jewison didn’t accept the Oscar is beyond me. I ran out and bought the delux ‘06 edition the week it was released. Limited record upgrade – the widescreen is definitely better than the fleshy frame, but there’s no impprovement on the sound… dare I say it’s worse. The music and most of the dialogue sounds like it is standard stereo (perhaps even mono at some points) … but the actual kicker is the background music is so loud at times you can’t hear the character talking. Immense movie, but I feel it deserved better treament on the re-release.
