Kathleen Turner was nominated for (and deserved)an Academy Award for her work in this movie. She and her co-stars do a wonderful job and I think this movie is and was underrated. It's thoughtful, touching, funny and sentimental in a way... Full review

I really love this movie, not only for a nostalgic trip (although I'm not really old enough to relate) but for its originality. It's also a trip to realize that everyone of the main cast ended up becoming big; especially Nicholas... Full review

Turner says that the actor behaved badly on the set of the 1986 film 'Peggy Sue Got Married' in order to show he was a bit of a rebel and hadn't just got the part because his uncle, Francis Ford Coppola, was the director.
Well, Turner is back in the news now, isn't she, so well done Nic for gleefully grabbing the bait and getting reeled in.

Still, Kathleen Turner should count herself lucky that Nicolas Cage is only suing her - it's only common decency that's stopping him from jumping into his old bear suit and smacking her right in the face. ... Full Review

In the book, Turner alleges Cage went to great lengths to disobey his director uncle Francis Ford Coppola on the set of their 1986 movie, adding he found himself in trouble with police while filming.
But the 53-year-old actress insists she had no intention for the contents of her book to upset Cage, or anybody else, and is deeply sorry for any hurt caused.
