ABOUT THIS EPISODE
We're kicking off October with a look at the romance of Griffin Dunne's 1998 cult classic Practical Magic, a movie that's mostly about Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock as witch sisters.
Join in as we discuss the incredible production design, Kidman's 90s, the film's questionably successful tonal balance, and Dunne's unseen director's cut.
Plus: Did a witch curse the film's production? How long does it take to travel from Massachusetts to Tucson? Has this Arizona cop gone rogue? And, most importantly, why did Maria Owens curse her own family?
