Has that autumn spirit
Fall has a feel all of its own. Sighing breezes shuffle confetti-colored leaves across the ground, bringing the sharp scent of cool air to the nose. It's a time for harvest, for plucking apples and picking pumpkins. It's also a time of excitement. There is feel of change surrounding the season, brought on by the restlessness of fallen leaves and culminated by the rush of Halloween night. In literature, author Ray Bradbury is unmatched in his ability to convey the aura of autumn. Books stemming from his "October country," such as Something Wicked This Way Comes or the simpler Halloween Tree, are staples of the season. In cinema, Hocus Pocus sits at the mantle of quintessential fall films. It's a fun ride, an adventure that every child hopes this Halloween will be. Hocus Pocus encompasses the modern spirit of All Hallow's Eve. The holiday is about imagination, escapism, and mystery. It thrives on the thrill of the unknown. Director Kenny Ortega has managed to distill the midnight dreams of the American child and present it in one-and-a-half hours of pure, joyful fantasy. Just as no Christmas should pass without a viewing of Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life, no October should go by without an evening spent in the world of Hocus Pocus.
YAY! This may sound corney but "I love this movie!"
