...sweet seasonal gift, take all of Moonstruck, the most beguiling romantic comedy this side of Broadcast News. Strains of Dean Martin's That's Amore -- "When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie" -- fill the Brooklyn night. A full moon illuminates Loretta Castorini (Cher) and all her family. Everybody falls in love. Her father (Vincent Gardenia), who claims he can't fall asleep because "it's too much like death," slinks out for a bit of tart on the side. Loretta's mother (Olympia Dukakis) dines furtively with a professor (John Mahoney) who keeps striking out with...

The women are witches, you see. And now they...

...performances are in perfect high pitch. Cher and her screen sisters all catch the edge of flinty, frantic resilience; these three could bewitch any prospective devil. There are nifty turns from Veronica Cartwright (as the local prude) and Helen Lloyd Breed (as a sprightly oldster). Then there's Nicholson. Well! He might have been rehearsing for this role ever since The Shining. If he was over the top there, he is stratospheric here. He is a beast on two legs, grunting, slavering, pawing anyone, and never mind the scratches. Does Jack stink like Daryl? No, he is gloriously rank. Sulfuric...
