I had seen the series on Netflix and enjoyed it enough to check out this movie, but... I was NOT expecting to like this movie so much! I can definitely see how this movie spawned so many follow-up movies and a popular series. It is fun, relatable, heart-warming. a definitely family film, but in the good kind of way where everybody in the family can enjoy the film, not just where it's safe for everybody in the family. And now, I'm in search of the rest of the movies :) Synopsis from the back of the DVD- A mysterious, yet charming woman arrives in a small town and causes s stir when people think she is an actual witch. The town's moral committee, led by the mayor's wife, becomes convinced that she is evil and begins a campaign to drive her out of town. This causes much stress to the town sheriff, a struggling widower, who is slowly developing feelings for the woman. As their relationship grows, the woman helps the sheriff's children, as well as several members of the community, face their problems and overcome personal obstacles. But is it common sense or magic that's helping the townsfolk? And will they ever be able to accept her as 1 of their own?
