MFL - Feeling Spooky: PRACTICAL MAGIC and E.T.

Happy Halloween season, Movies for Life listeners! We hope you're having a great time with however you celebrate if you do, perhaps with plenty of scary movies. We thought we would change things up just a bit for spooky month, so instead of talking about those traditional Halloween movies that frankly get talked about enough this time of year, we thought we would highlight a couple of films that really give us the feeling of the season. First up in the conversation is Michele's pick of PRACTICAL MAGIC from 1998, starring Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman and directed by Griffin Dunne (yes THAT Griffin Dunne!). It's an admittedly weird and chaotic little movie but at its core has a very warm and enjoyable story about the bonds of women and sisters. Then we move on to Brian's pick which is Steven Spielberg's classic E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL (1982). What is it about that little alien that can still capture our hearts and imaginations all these years later? We discuss it all in the episode, so listen now!  Follow the hosts and show on Twitter: Movies For Life podcast: @MovieLifePod Brian Keiper: @Brianwaves42 Michele Eggen: @micheleneggen
