The Witches of Eastwick

In Frank Henenlotter's quaint New England setting, three unmoored women—Alex, Jane, and Sukie—find their lives upended by the arrival of the enigmatic and flamboyant Larry Wendell. Henenlotter's adaptation of John Updike's novel is a sly blend of witchcraft and small-town politics, where desires manifest with dark consequences. As the women embrace their newfound supernatural powers, the film navigates the fine line between fantasy and reality, weaving a tale of empowerment and the price of wishes fulfilled.
