As Anne Hathaway takes on the iconic role of the Grand High Witch in Roald Dahl’s The Witches, it’s also a great time to appreciate Anjelica Huston’s memorable performance in the 1990 version of the movie! Huston’s glamorous, campy performance as the all-powerful witch hiding in plain sight is one of the biggest reason that the original adaptation of The Witches has endured as such a classic for 30 years. Every gleefully wicked line and pose is totally unforgettable, and even though we’re super excited to see how Hathaway plays the role, we’ll always love Huston too. Keep reading for a quick trip down memory lane to revisit Huston’s best moments as the Grand High Witch!
