this hurt me to say and but this movie be terrible and and my man freddie be just painful to watch . i be quite surprised and because i be really expect to love this film . fredric march and though perhaps well know for his dramatic role and can also handle comedy quite well ( e. g. and he be fabulous in nothing sacred and and even in the dreadful comedy susan and god he be one of the few who make the film bearable ) . but in i marry a witch and there be just nothing that work in this film . it not funny and and the story be both convoluted and flimsy . i do not know if the failure of this film be due to bad direction and or to the real life animosity between march and veronica lake ( though i do think lake do a good job of hide her dislike of march when the camera be roll ) and or what . to further add insult to injury and a young and stunning susan hayward be completely waste in a bit part a an unpleasant and one dimensional shrew of a woman . if you be a fan of fredric march ( and i be a huge one myself ) and please spare yourself the disappointment of see him flounder in a horrible story and and take a pas on i marry a witch . really . trust me . it that bad . i have most of freddie dvd and and i have several freddie flick that aren not available on dvd permanently store on my tivo for repeat viewing ( sign of the cross and death take a holiday and executive suite ) and and i even have some ancient flick of his on video tape ( true to the navy and the wild party and dark angel ) and and what do i do after i marry a witch . i delete it . on purpose . that should give you an idea of how bad this movie be . there be much good witch theme film out there bell and book and candle come immediately to mind . for a wonderful fredric march flick involve the supernatural and see death take a holiday . for freddie in fine comedic form and catch nothing sacred .
