BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

TCM’s month-long salute to Kim Novak continues tonight, and prime time begins with her most enchanting film roles – literally. In this 1958 comedy, she plays a witch who casts a spell to catch the eye of James Stewart, who previously was bedazzled by her in Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo. When she holds that cat under her face to gaze into his eyes, it’s like watching four cat eyes at once – what a strange feline! All that, and co-star Ernie Kovacs, too.
