Summary: Rich and lusty with life
Review: A cast of Richard Dreyfus, Holly Hunter, Gena Rowlands & Danny Aiello would be hard to beat. Their characters are all richly expressed. Richard Dreyfus plays a wonderful role in this film and he does it with a fascinating lustiness. It is my favorite of his many excellent portrayals and one of my favorite movie characters. This film is perfect for a story of family, for romance and both can't-take-my-eyes-or-hands-off-of-you new love and matured love and for a plot that you can't forsee which carries you headlong through joy and sadness and a wealth of other emotions. There are some unique and memorable visual images.I've seen this movie a dozen times and appreciate it more each time. Like a great book, you are sorry when it ends and you have to part company.

Summary: Fly me to the moon
Review: I love this movie. Watched it on home video years ago, and I was a fool for not buying it because now it is not available. We lifted our wedding song from this movie, and any time there is something to be celebrated we find a traffic circle, and go once around. It is one of my all time favorites.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An all time favorite!!
Review: I loved this film! I am a Dreyfuss/Hunter fan, and adore them in this movie. "Fly me to the Moon", has become a special song to me.

Summary: Fly me to the moon
Review: Once Around is one of those 'different' love stories. It's about the younger woman falling in love with a man, somewhat older than she. But the difference in their years has nothing to do with the amount of true love that he has for her.
His love for her is absolute. His love for her is honest. And his love for her is undying.

Unfortunately, the difference in their years, and their cultural differences (he is from Lithuania) causes a large conflict with her family. This is what tries harder than anything to come between them. However, their love for each other will never allow it to become an issue. They are married, they have a child, and their love grows beyond all bounds.

The point of the love story is simple, it grows, evolves, blossoms, and possesses their lives, to the point that when her family still finds conflict with him, she simply tells them to make a choice.

They do, and all of their lives are forever changed, and the end of the movie gives a whole new meaning to the words in the title, "Once Around." Enjoy this movie for what it is. Enjoy the love, the strife, the difficulties, but most of all, enjoy it for what it brings out in all of us. And don't be afraid to shed a tear. For, it will truly be a tear from the heart.

And remember, life is only 'once around' Give it your best.

Summary: I WANT THIS MOVIE IN DVD
Review: This is a true gem of a story about love and family. Richard Dreyfuss, Holly Hunter and Danny Aiello should have all been nominated for oscar's for their incredible performances in this quiet masterpeice. If you don't shed a tear and feel better about your life after watching this film. You are missing emotion. What surprises me is why this has never gotten released on DVD yet! Buy It! Rent It! Watch it! and "Fly To The Moon"!
