"Witches"

Week 5
February 11, 2018

This week i watched the movie "Bewitched" with Will Ferrel and Nicole Kidman, where a guy named Jack Wyatt goes through some difficulties and struggles in his life.  There is a popular 1960s sitcom "Bewitched" where he tries to make his comeback.  Jack meets Isabel and when shooting, he learns that she was actually a witch.  Isabel impresses the shows producers and writers and jack convinces Isabel to join the show, but she finds out about how they were going to make her go on without having any lines to say.  She decided either to "quit, get mad, or live with it."  Instead, Isabel cast a spell on Jack which makes him fall in love with her.  Jack chases after her and his affection for Isabel grows and grow and asks her on a date which makes Isabel completely forget about the hex.  But they end up fighting once again and Jack decides to throw a party to celebrate his divorce at his house which Nigel attends.  Jack makes a toast at the party stating that the truth will be revealed and he officially believes her when she begins to levitate off the ground and Isabel begins to fly off and away from everyone.  This witch is different in a couple of ways when I think of the stereotypical witch, i think of green skin, wart on the nose, black hair, black clothes, witches hat, a broom stick.  When they came out with "Bewitched" I think they wanted to do a twist on the modern day witch making her attractive compared to the one from the movie "The Wizard Of OZ".  Overall i was a fan of the movie because i enjoy Will Ferell and the way that they changed the way that we see witches.
