I stopped on this on Prime because the actress looked hot. The synopsis looks insane.

Romantic comedy from the 50s about a witch trying to find love. Giving it a go

Kim Novak is hot but I’d definitely be intimidated by her

Good movie. I've watched all of Jimmy Stewart's movies at least twice. Just watched this again last week.

Yeah, Kim Novak was very hot. Same chick in Vertigo. Check out
The Man with the Golden Arm if you haven't already.

The cinematography is the reason BB&C was released in technicolor instead of b & w, which was unusual at the time.

It’s a little awkward that Jimmy Stewart is twice as old as Novak.

Also, the scene with the band around Merle is odd.

I also get a kick in that Merle is like “are you hungover” while Jimmy Stewart is dressed to the nines

This is all just a bit odd. This breakup scene does not make Stewart seem likable

He was still in heart throb mode I guess.

It's got some oddities.

She put a spell on him

Jack Lemmon is refreshing.

Not sure what to make of Kovacs so far.

Hah, “we’ve been together two weeks, when are we going to get married”

That cat is cute

I enjoyed Lemmon's dialogue the most

I kinda got distracted for the last while. Once zLemmon and Novak have their argument, I felt like it lost a lot of steam. Still interesting movie
