The reason I mention this is that I've read later that Nicolas Cage decided to do a weird voice inflection that Kathleen Turner hated, but he wouldn't change it.
I should go watch that movie again to see if I still like it. It's been ages since I've seen it.

One of the first movies I saw him where he had a major role was Moonstruck. Moonstruck was HORRIBLE. I saw it in the theater and would have walked out had I not been with somebody else an hour away from home. Cage played a screeching, unhinged lunatic in his typical Cage-ish scenery-chewing style that made it that much worse, and for some reason that made no ****ing sense whatsoever Cher fell in love with him. It was stupid and awful and pointless, and he was the worst part of it, and somehow that vile turd of a movie won best picture. That soured me on Cage for a long time.
