About The Witches (1990):
Anjelica Huston stars in this fantasy based on a Roald Dahl book about a little boy and his kindly grandmother thwarting a coven of witches who want to rid Britain of children by turning them into mice. Vacationing at a seaside hotel with his grandmother, a young boy discovers that a convention of witches is also staying there and finds out about the evil plans of their Grand High Witch (Huston). Jim Henson devised the creature effects in his last film.

Anjelica Huston had real presence and dominance as the Grand High Witch, she was tall, dressed mostly in all black, beautiful but had a wicked, cocky smirk to her and her stare was very intimidating and the big strong accent. She definitely looked like a real witch. She put the fear into 30 years plus years worth of kids amazing actress.

I never noticed this but the Grand High Witch is an immortal being like The Beldam from Coraline or Pennywise from IT. The child she had locked in the painting at 2:14 is from a much older time period.

[@manuelenrique9220]

If the boy from the painting was from an old period why didn't he grow up like Erika did?

[@foxteen8721]

@@manuelenrique9220 He seems to have, because he also faded from the picture just like Erica.

[@manuelenrique9220]

@@foxteen8721 But he didn't look old. I think the point of the scene is to show the Grand High Witch is so evil that she wouldn't wait till the boy gets old to die in the painting. Instead she killed the boy right away and finished the job of the witch that trapped him there in the first place.

[@jonesy9717]

you might be correct about the grand high witch being an immortal being, well, here's some evidence, first you were correct about the painting, it looks like its from a older time period, second, in the remake there's a line where the grand high witch said "pigtails pigtails, you wore pigtails, ohhh...many years ago in a shabby little town, shabby little town right here in Alabbama , you wore pigtails.... and you got away from me remember, but i got a ______ friend of yours , REMEMBE--- [ chicken noise]"[the reason why theres a blank there is because i dont know the word she said] this quickly reminds us the story of Alice Blue, where the grandma's friend Alice was turned into a chicken by the grand high witch, but the grand high witch looked young and desame , and the grandma was very young at that time, but, it might not be true, since the story of Ericka was replaced by the story of Alice, and it was not the grand high witch that made Ericka live in a painting, so thats all.

[@astrangerhere]

I love this movie and Anjelica's performance. They did make one error at 2:14 when instead of violet eyes she has her natural brown eyes.

[@padmapatil2885]

No it's not a error,she doesn't always have purple eyes in the movie

[@astrangerhere]

The movie states that witches have purple eyes. I doubt the color of their eyes changes.

[@lisamcdonald1014]

Unlike in the novel by Roald Dahl, their eyes would change colour, and you’d see 🔥 and 🧊 dancing in the very centre

[@carlitocool8393]

Her eyes only get really purple when she is angry or upset or when she is without her mask and wig in the movie

[@williamrowley2019]

I always wondered if the Grand High Witch was magically changing the grandmothers food and putting sugar in her tea? Or if they were just honest mistakes?

[@TheScientist43]

I think it was deliberate, because The Grand High Witch smirks while looking at Helga

[@lisamcdonald1014]

Yes it was revealed that Helga had a mild case of diabetes on Luke’s 9th birthday. That used to scare me too, that lead to my dizzy spell 11 years after 2003

You can't really tell from the shaky editing, but reading the script, the implication at 6:12 is that the Grand High Witch is using her magic to switch the Grandmother's tea and sandwiches to mess with her diabetes and make sure she stays asleep later on.

@@jpdinos I think that’s why Nicola becomes the Grand High Witch’s favourite, because she has style as well. The other witches are a little bit dowdy compared to them.

[@widowfae]

​@BLTKellys Not only that, Nicola is also the high witch of England. Therefore, puts her in higher authority of all the other witches in England. I wonder if witches in higher authority appear more "beautiful" in human form.

[@maliaferry8212]

They filmed 2 different ending 1: where Luke stays a mouse 2. Where Luke turns back into a boy Test audiences didn't like the mouse which is the originals ending from Roll Doll novel so they chose to turn Luck back. The new version has several changes including the setting America in the 1960 vs England, like the novel and original film, but keeps the book ending. I personally think the 1980 film is better, but that just my option. What do you think?

The Witches here look mostly ordinary and everyday, many even frumpy, with a few cute enough to date, which makes them scarier when you realise their true nature and makes sense they can lull kids to their doom so easily. In the remake they look so ridiculously high-maintenance they're already off-putting when you see them.

There’s a reason why the overwhelming majority of actors/actresses, artists & musicians are left-leaning politically: because the arts are and have always been a liberal, subversive discipline of human expression, with an eye towards setting humanity free from rigid tradition, fixed social constructs, & fundamentalist & organized religion (all components of conservatism).

For all of you that think the old version is better just because of the ending, think again: In original and 2020 version: The boy and his grandmother spend the rest of their lives getting rid of witches all around the world, and presumably die together of old age (the boy's lifespan is much shorter as a mouse). In 1990 version: Grandmother dies in a few years and the boy, still underage, ends up at the local orphanage, where he is once again targeted by witches, or even worse, locked up in asylum for saying that witches exist. So, which ending is better now?
