    The Witches

    Crawled out of bed this afternoon after getting back fom the airport at 6:30am. I was scrolling through my TV and came across the 1990 movie The Witches. Have any of you seen this movie?

    I watched it in elementary school after reading the book, and now I have just realized how campy it is, yet for 1990, Jim Henson did a brilliant job of animating the cutest mice I have ever seen. It is a shame this was the last film he touched before passing.

    The make up on Anjelica Huston as a witch blows me away too.

    I loved it as a kid, and I still enjoy it now whenever it's on tv.

          Dear god, it's spreading!

          I liked the book better than the movie. We read it in the 5th grade for school and the teacher would do voices because she liked it so much.

              I think my teacher did witch voices too. I thought it was grade 5 or 6 that I had read it but couldn't remember. Roald Dahl is an amazing writer.

                We read it in the 6th grade. I also had a teacher from England who would do voices and had the accent too. I'll never forget her going red in the face screaming "Reeemmoooooof your SHOES!"
