Magic in Town

About This Movie

So, 'Magic in Town' is this quirky Danish film from 1968, directed by Annelise Reenberg. It blends comedy and family vibes in a way that feels very much of its time. The plot revolves around Pusle, a girl who discovers her magical abilities on her birthday, thanks to an ancient figure sent from her uncle. The pacing is light and playful, really capturing that innocent wonder you often find in family films of the era. The performances are charming, especially with Pusle's interactions with the adults, like the police constable and the psychiatrist, creating a delightful contrast. What stands out here are the practical effects that add a whimsical texture to the magic moments. It’s definitely got a unique atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and refreshing.
