Practical Magic (Keep Case Packaging)
Description
If a broom falls, company is due. When a circle rings the
moon, trouble looms, Should you misplace your broom, sorry; a hand vac can’t
be used in an exorcism rite. Fun and excitement abound in the Owens family of
wily witches. One problem, though: the men the Owens women fall in love with
are doomed to an untimely death. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman bring a
sparkling screen magic to Practical Magic, adapted from Alice Hoffman’s
bestseller and directed by Griffin Dunne (Addicted to Love). They play Sally
and Gillian Owens, sisters hexed by a centuries -old curse…and coping with a
witches brew of events involving a possible love match (Aidan Quinn) for one,
a zombie (Goran Visnjic) for the other and a need to resume the age-old
witchcraft taught by two doting Owens aunts (Stockard Channing and Dianne
Wiest). Sit for a spell and enjoy. Review Actor Griffin Dunne improves a bit
on his first film as a director, Addicted to Love, with this drama-comedy
about a family of witches. Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock play spell-casting
sisters of different temperaments: the former is a high-living, free-spirited
sort, while Bullock’s character is a homebody who can’t get around a family
curse that kills the men in their lives. A widowed single mom, Bullock gets
into a jam with an abusive Bulgarian (Goran Visnjic) and is helped out by her
sibling, but the result brings a good-looking, warm, inquisitive cop (Aidan
Quinn) into their lives. The film has a variety of tonal changes–cute, scary,
glum–that Dunne can’t always effectively juggle. But the female-centric,
celebratory nature of the film (the fantasies, the sharing, the witchy bonds)
is infectious, and supporting roles by Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing as
Kidman and Bullock’s magical aunts are a lot of fun. –Tom Keogh
