I’m talking about a book with not one, but two adaptions, that were made 30 years apart! The Witches is another classic from Roald Dahl, and the 1990 adaptation starring Anjelica Huston is the one I grew up with and love, so how does the 2020 HBO adaptation compare? Watch to find out!

The story is about a boy who is raised by his grandmother, after his parents die in a car accident. His grandmother knows all about witches, and she teaches him how to identify and avoid them. The 1990s adaptation stayed pretty true to the book, but the 2020 version gives us a more modern take and moves the story from Norway and England to the US, so there’s quite a few cultural changes, but the main plot is there.
