\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Maureen Trant (EMILY WARFIELD) and her younger sibling Dani (REESE WITHERSPOON) share a strong connection, but local boy Court Foster (JASON LONDON) threatens to throw their bond off balance. Dani and Court meet first and have a flirtatious rapport — but when he meets Maureen, he falls hard and they begin a passionate affair. The new couple try to keep their love hidden from Dani, but she soon learns the truth, disavowing her sister. But a heartbreaking accident later reunites the girls.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The Man in the Moon<\/em><\/strong> arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Twilight Time and is presented in its original 1.85 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. This looks decent enough in HD with okay colors while skin tones appear natural looking. The audio is a DTS-HD MA 2.0 track and as dramas go, it\u2019s adequate providing crisp, clean and clear dialogue levels while ambient noises are minimal and the score\/soundtrack comes through well enough.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

\n

Overall, The Man in the Moon<\/em><\/strong> is a well made coming-of-age story that\u2019s probably most memorable for being Reese Witherspoon\u2019s introduction but also features a nice supporting cast. This Blu-ray released through Twilight Time offers good video and audio transfers but sadly falters in the features department.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
