5 out of 5 stars Great Movie   May 12, 2007

We wore out our VHS copy so we ordered in DVD. Great movie, we watch it every few months. If you've never seen it, rent it, then you'll buy it.


5 out of 5 stars Passable? No, it's a masterpiece.   March 20, 2007

First, I can't believe how shallow, misinformed, obtuse and insensitive Tom Keogh's editorial review is.

"Peggy Sue Got Married" is a wonderful, funny, heartfelt and somewhat haunting story about how the ghosts of high school affect us throughout our lives.

Kathleen Turner's performance, as a woman who time-travels back to her last year of high school, is nothing short of a brilliant. It's a physical marvel - the way Turner transforms, through her subtle facial gestures and mannerisms, back into the body of a teenager. Faced with the awesome possibility of being able to relive high school, knowing what she knows now, Peggy Sue behaves like anyone would given the chance. What would you say to your grandmother, now dead? What about the boy you're going to marry, and who you later divorce?

The movie is very touching, and also very funny, and is definitely the last great film that Francis Ford Coppola made. Coppola was, by 1986, in a very tumultuous period in his career - wasting his time developing cinematic technology and experimental narratives that derailed his career. With "Peggy Sue Got Married," Coppola had a great story, a great actress, and he simply decided to make a great film.

"Peggy Sue Got Married" is one of the best films of mid-1980s.

4 out of 5 stars Peggy Sue Got Married is a Classic   November 5, 2006

This movie is a classic, especially for Nicholas Cage as Peggy Sue's boyfriend/husband. Kathleen Turner is also excellent as Peggy Sue. The movie gives Peggy Sue an opportunity to go back in time to her high school days and see how she would change things from her past if given the chance. I'm sure each of us at one time or another has thought about how life could have been different. There is also some great humor in this movie.


5 out of 5 stars If I could turn back time....   September 6, 2006
Think of all the choices now in the "permanent consequence" folder that you can alter forever! I loved this film about a woman sent back 25 years to her senior year in high school where she was homecoming queen. Knowing all you know will be ... Peggy Sue finds her emotions cause her to make the same choices over again! Maybe there is some wisdom is not being able to go through a time machine. Things do happen for a reason.
