‘The Love Witch’
The Love Witch is an unexpected and refreshing comedy from director Anna Biller. Filmed in 2016 but set in the ’60s, The Love Witch follows a young, beautiful woman named Elaine who is obsessed with the idea of finding love. But her magic and love spells have a tendency of going haywire and killing the men she hopes to entice. Elaine is a protagonist like no other. Even as the doe-eyed witch continues murdering the eligible young men in town, the viewer can’t help but hope that her love spell will finally work. Biller created an instant classic with this feature; shot on 35 mm film with near-perfect costume and set design, The Love Witch is a true tribute to the ’60s.
