Film Illiterate, wherein the proprietor records movies seen, and sporadic progress through assorted lists of the "best". Originally started after regretfully renting something forgettable for the third time. I've forgotten what, but never again! A tedious endeavour since 2005. Hello. 🙂
Shep (James Stewart) is ensnared by Gil (Kim Novak), a modern-day witch. Additional plot complications arise in the form of her brother Nicky (Jack Lemmon), a warlock who teams up with author Sidney Redlitch (Ernie Kovacs) to write a book about the secret magic-users of Greenwich Village.
It's a cute film, with some of the "straight-man suffers magical mishaps" that later became staples in the likes of Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie, but, perhaps surprisingly, it is more romance than comedy. It is said that a witch cannot cry and will lose her powers if she falls in love; Novak convincingly plays the ice queen who merely toys with Shep -- until, of course, it becomes something more.
It's a lovely little romance and well worth a look.
