“If the witches taught me anything, it’s that life isn’t so scary when you have the love of a sister.” – Marielle Segarra, NPR

“Dunne is committed, thank good-ness, unapologetic for even the most fluttery sentiment or spookiest chill” – Hazel-Dawn Dumpert, L.A. Weekly

Join us for a witchy Halloween evening at FACETS with Practical Magic (1998), a spellbinding story of love, loss, and the enduring bond between sisters, where we’ll be celebrating an iconic scene from the film with a special “Midnight Margarita” drink available at concessions.  

Embrace the season’s energy as we celebrate Practical Magic’s exploration of feminine strength and the ways women find magic within themselves and each other. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman’s dynamic chemistry brings this rich, witchy story to life, creating a timeless ode to resilience and the bonds that transcend even the darkest spells. With cozy New England backdrops and autumnal vibes, it’s the perfect film to welcome the magic of fall. 

Directed by actor Griffin Dunne (After Hours, An American Werewolf in London), Practical Magic has become a beloved classic, and for those who can’t get enough of the Owens family, rumors of a reboot with the original cast have been bubbling up, promising a possible return to this magical world. Whether you’re a first-timer or a lifelong fan, this screening is sure to cast a spell on your Halloween night! 

This double feature was programmed by FACETS‘ Managing Director, Rebecca Zunno.

Griffin Dunne, USA, 1998, 104 minutes

DRINK SPECIAL

In honor of Practical Magic‘s iconic scene, we’ll be serving our signature “Midnight Margarita”—a blackberry margarita—at a special price for this screening. Sip on this witchy concoction and fully embrace the magical vibes of the night!
