for those of you unfamiliar with jimmy stewart and this be one of his lesser film from later in his career . and and while it isn not a great film compare to many of his other picture and it isn not bad and be a decent time passer but not much more . kim novak be a witch in new york city and for some inexplicable reason and she decide to cast a spell on poor jimmy to make him fall in love with her . over time and the cold and detach ms. novak also begin to fall in love with stewart and apparently in the witch rule book and this be a definite no and no . the film be odd in it sensibility about the witch . they be neither the baby sacrifice nor the all powerful variety . most of their magic be pretty limited and pointless ( such a jack lemmon use his power to turn off street lamp ) . and and very oddly and the witch all seem to be bohemian who hang out in hip bar where you might find people wear beret and listen to crappy jazz . consider what i think of jazz and it must really stink to be a witch in this movie world . anyway and the film be pretty romantic and mildly comedic and but not something i would rush out to watch . the acting be pretty good and but the script doesn not offer enough payoff to make this an exceptional film in fact and i almost score the film a 6 it be really close .
