Practical Magic Film Review

Sally and Gilian Owen have always known they were different. Raised by their aunts after their parent’s death, the sister grew up in a household that was anything by put 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 adults women with very different personalities, the quiet Sally and the fiery Gilian must use all of their powers to fight the family curse and a swarm of supernatural forces that threatens are lives of all the Owens' women.

Practical magic shows that magic can be very dangerous when used for evil, selfish acts that cause pain and loss but it can bring families together and can make people happy as well. Witches are not accepted at all in society apart from the men that they cast spells on to make them fall in love with them who end up dying in horrible ways because of the Owens curse. This film has helped with my investigation because it is show witches and their craft in the 21st century and how it can apply to today. It has demonstrated that witchcraft is not accepted in society because of the way that people fear it and how it is not understood with people who are not involved with it.
