LAKE IS A WITCH MARCH IS A MAN HE IS DOOMED, 21 January 2000
8/10
Author: jbekins from United States

VERONICA LAKE IS TRULY ONE OF THE REAL BEAUTIES OF THE 1940's This is one of the great fun movies of all time. Think about it a witch changes the election just for fun. March is befuddle throughout. He is in love with Susan Hayward (another great beauty). She could be the best actress of her time. March turns in another great performance. See this movie and you will see the plot for "Bewitched" the long running TV show of the 1960's. Lake and March did it first and they did it right!! FUN FUN FUN
