This film is just so adorable and fun. Veronica Lake is incredibly charming as the witch Jessica. 7 years 7 months ago -

1942's I Married a Witch is a bit of a puff piece (I guess that's a pun based on how much time the witches spend in smoke form), but it's an amusing one where we quickly forgive and forget the murders, and the mythology is so close to that of Bewitched, my head canon is basically that this is how Samantha and Darren met. Did they ever tell that story on the show? If not, then this could be their origin with the names and numbers filed off (to protect the innocent, you know). A lot of people like Veronica Lake, but I think she's just okay as an actress. She's having fun here, but there isn't much to her character. Fredric March is likewise a non-value to me, just kind of generic as the politician who doesn't want to fall in love with the witch and is committed to his harpy of a fiancée. But I'm there for the talking bottles, the broomstick action, the Puritan vendor at the witch trial, the magical election interference, and all that silliness. Cute and inoffensive, but a streak of sexiness. 2 years 12 months ago -
