Dreaming of ... Bell Book and Candle

I admit that I have long ago fallen under the spell cast by Kim Novak as witch Gillian Holroyd in this film. She is - in a word - bewitching. In my dreams I am her - great lavender tinted hair, bare feet, beatnick outfits and the most fantastic back in movie history.
It's a wonderful dream.....
I live a totally bohemian and glam lifestyle in Greenwich Village.
My brother is Jack Lemmon and my aunt is Elsa Lancaster.
Ernie Kovacs comes to visit.
James Stewart wants to "mush my nose."
I have a great cat named Pyewacket.
And, best of all,  I have magical powers. 
However, in my dream I do NOT give them up.  


Would you?

    The play is so very much better than the movie -- but for the purposes of your dream, I can hardly disagree!

    I do declare - I simply cannot control what goes on in my subconscious!

    I would give up nothing but Jimmy Stewart...and I'd try ever so hard to conjure up Cary Grant. And a few more Jean Louis outfits.

    @ Lady Eve - conjuring up Cary Grant is a definitive reason NOT to surrender your powers - oh, that and world peace!

    I would not give up my powers either, so.. I could have Gary Copper, in the film.
