Practical Magic

Practical Magic is a 1998 film in which Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman star as witches who carry on a family legacy of witchcraft and tragedy.

The movie's family has had a history of witchcraft that has passed on from every woman in the family on to the girls of the family, Bullock, Kidman and their daughters. The women in the family never give birth to boys, and therefore, since there are no men in their families, except for the men they meet and marry, there are no men who carry these powers and romantic tragedy. Most of the women in their town are apprehensive of their lifestyle and view them as evil and as a connection to the Devil. As the movie progresses, Kidman's boyfriend (played by Goran Visnjic) turns abusive and evil and dies during a drunken binge. He is revived by Kidman and comes back as a monster and starts attacking everybody. Kidman is spritually overtaken and Bullock hears her in her mind and goes to rescue her. Bullock's daughter's find Kidman. Bullock and Kidman assist in the destruction of Kidman's boyfriend. As this is all going on, Bullock loses her husband and the love of her life, but she understands that no matter what she does, nothing can really bring back her old love, so she has the task of raising her own daughters by herself.
