Bell, Book and Candle

(1958)Directed by Richard Quine106 minComedy, Fantasy, Romance
“Getting here is half the fun...”

Gillian Holroyd (Kim Novak), a witch living in a modern apartment, takes one look at her handsome upstairs neighbor Shep Henderson (James Stewart) and casts a love spell on him. Richard Quine directs the romance as a light comedy with Jack Lemmon as her warlock brother Nicky, who is clearly enjoying himself. The trouble is that her feelings turn real, and a witch who truly falls in love may lose the powers she has always had.
