We All Remember 'Cocoon,' but You'd Better Hold Onto Those Memories — You Can’t Relive Them Again

In 1985, a movie about a group of elderly people who are rejuvenated by aliens was released. It was a commercial success, the fifth highest-grossing film of the year, and likewise a favorite with critics. It was one of Ron Howard’s first directing efforts, and won both of the Academy Awards it was nominated for, Best Supporting Actor and Best Visual Effects. It’s Cocoon, and if you’re keen to check it out, well, you’ll need a big wallet. The only way you’re able to see the film is if you shell out for a rare physical copy of the film, and no one really knows why.
