Lake Makes The Film Fun
Oct 24, 2006
ccthemovieman-1 - imdb.com
This is a fairly humorous story with decent special effects, especially considering it was made over 40 years ago. The key ingredient for success in this film was Veronica Lake. She's known more for her peekaboo blonde locks and for... Full review

I'm sure there are many women just as beautiful as Veronica Lake. I'm sure there were, and will be, directors as gifted as Rene Clair. And I'm sure there are Irish mischief makers as amusing as Cecil Kellaway. And politicians... Full review
When I first saw this film in the fifties and I was in my early teens, I thought then that Veronica Lake was one of the sexiest and good-looking ladies that I had ever seen. After watching the movie again... Full review
Superior light comedy

Pleasing comedy fantasy. There are some moments where watching Lake perform is really nice -- I love the bitchy look and how she puts her arms out when she slams the door with her magic in anger. Lake plays a... Full review

William C. Uchtman - imdb.com
I love this movie! It's mystically enchanting and irresistably charming. It's probably the greatest movie which Veronica Lake ever did, and probably one of the best classics to come out of the heyday of Hollywood.As captivating as Marilyn Monroe was... Full review

After reading many film books such as the Hurrell one and "The image makers" I had really started to wonder about Veronica Lake. Having never seen any of her films I really wanted to see her in something...and to be... Full review
Whimsical comedy with wonderful Lake...wooden March...

Neil Doyle - imdb.com
Veronica Lake and Cecil Kellaway seem to get into the spirit of this whimsical comedy about witchcraft--while Fredric March (who reportedly disliked working with Lake whom he considered an inferior actress) does not come off well in comedy. Lake plays... Full review
Nicely-done comedy with a good cast
May 23, 2000
smokehill - imdb.com
Very well-crafted comedy with some memorable work by Veronica Lake and a charming role for Cecil Kellaway (perfectly cast in this picture). Considering some of the fluffy, forgettable comedies of this era, this one deserves a much better following than... Full review

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... Full review

Time Out
The film is a jewel, real classics and pure fun.....The following love story might have been predictable....Veronica Lake is terrific in her beauty, remarkably warm voice, and comic talent -....The plot produces some special effects, which are fun to watch even after 60 years after filming.....Unfortunately, Veronica Lake was nothing like that..... ...

Time Out
In I married a witch, the story is about a couple of medieval sorcerers, father and daughter, who were burnt and buried, sending curses to the offender for the following centuries: to him and his descendants to be ever unhappily married. Posted on Jul 03 2007 01:44 *****SPOILER ALERT*****I married a witch, with Veronica Lake and Frederic March, was shot in the US in 1942, and one should be surprised to see how fresh and cinematographically modern is this movie. ...
