Agents and Magic

[jazzy_dave]

Another crappy rainy morning but at east it wa a drier afternoon.

Last night i watched the latest episode of Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D and a film from the 90's called Practical Magic starring Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock. in it
Bullock and Kidman play sisters Sally and Gillian Owens, who have always known they were different from each other. Raised by their aunts after their parents' death, the sisters grew up in a household that was anything but typical—their aunts fed them chocolate cake for breakfast and taught them the uses of practical magic. But the invocation of the Owens' sorcery also carries a price—some call it a curse: the men they fall in love with are doomed to an untimely death. Now adult women with very different personalities, the quiet Sally and the fiery Gillian must use all of their powers to fight the family curse and a swarm of supernatural forces that could take away all the Owens' lives.



It was an enjoyable fluffy romantic comedy type of film.

"Practical Magic" is a long favorite movie and book. Alice Hoffman wrote the book and the movie has many differences from the book but both are enjoyable to me. I dreamed of living in a house like in the movie for years.

I would like to see that movie because I really like Sandra Bullock, but I really don't like Nicole Kidman. :p

I LOVE 'Practical Magic', both the film and the book. In fact, Alice Hoffmann is one of my favorite authors, and 'Practical Magic' is my favorite of her work. All her work has magical realism, but this is her only work (that I know of) with outright, in your face magic.
