Moonstruck

Talking To The Moon 

The moon is accomplice of all things related to the heart.- Walter Mercado

I had planned on talking about the movie Moonstruck, but I don't really remember much about it.

It is funny, I recall. It stars Cher.

So, I googled it for its cast of moonstruck characters.

First of, there's Loretta Castorini (Cher), a widow in her late 30's. She finds herself in a difficult situation when she falls in love with her fiancĂ©'s hot-tempered, estranged younger brother.

There is her wise, cynical mother who goes out to dinner by herself on a moonlit night and meets a middle-age university professor who specializes in seducing his young students, but who has found in this mature woman a certain undeniable sexuality.

There is Cher’s father who has a furtive and yet somewhat sweet affair that he has been carrying on for years.



So, there. Need I say more?

When the moon hits your eye, like a big-a pizza pie - that’s amore!

You're moon·struck.

adjective

unable to think or act normally, especially because of being in love

And so this blog series comes to an end.
