Practical Magic
WHAT WENT WRONG | 14 sep 2026 | 01:21:44
Despite its all-star cast, when ‘Practical Magic’ landed in theaters in 1998 it was a critical and commercial failure. The blow was particularly devastating for director Griffin Dunne who had tried to exorcise some very personal demons via the film. This week, Chris and Lizzie discover how the Owens sisters went from box office poison to home video magic. Find out how Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman got involved, how the film fooled Barbra Streisand, who built those beautiful sets, and why an actual witch tried to burn the whole movie down.
Come back on Friday for our subscriber-only review of ‘Practical Magic 2’!
