The judge ruled that his role as a producer on the movie is not to be considered in determining his guilt or not guilt.

If You See One Nic Cage Movie

Nicolas has been in 120 movies, so far. But if he could only pick one for the rest of us to go see, it wouldn’t be Valley Girl, or Raising Arizona or even Moonstruck. He would choose, Pig. “[Pig is] something that I think people can get something out of, because tragedy is going to hit all of us at some point. It’s just a matter of when. It’s also a movie that to me is like a folk song. It’s very quiet, gentle movie, which is the polar opposite of … people thinking I’m crazy”.

If its all the same to you, i’ll just watch Moonstruck again.
