In this context, the movie's normalization of teenage drinking doesn't play as realism (as is intended by the depiction of dope-smoking in "Dude"), but as a realm of enchantment in which nothing bad can really happen; Elle does get sloshed at a pool party and almost strips, but is saved by her crush.

More than just creating individual works or even constructing a linear oeuvre, she has, over the years, woven from glass, bronze, paper, glitter, steel, lead, clay and thread a vast, all-encompassing universe of enchantment, religious ecstasy and personal mythology, one that challenges the notion of decorative figuration as somehow less powerful than muscular, largely male abstraction and minimalism.
Surely, one reason so many of us continue to look back at these movements of the '60s and '70s with such fascination and enchantment has to do with a longing for a time when art's battles seemed solely aesthetic in nature: the fight for rigorous clarity, for a boundless purity of vision, for freedom from the burdens of history.

No less wrenching is the sight of Margaret O'Brien, the Beth of the 1949 movie, setting off to thank a rich old man for the gift of his piano; with her starched frock, and her solemn demeanor strangely close to tears, she could be Alice in Wonderland, and the whole film, robed in Technicolor, retains a picture-book enchantment.

In his seminal text The Uses of Enchantment, psychologist Bruno Bettelheim exposes the need for magic in children's development because it conforms to their less literal view of the world; he also expounds on how, when forced into reality too quickly, many adults pursue "magic" in the forms of daydreams or drugs to make up for the lack of imagination earlier in life.

The idea of the East as a primitive land of enchantment is now so firmly fixed in people's minds that it obscures the underlying reality, an idea explored by Edward Said in his classic book Orientalism "He's really taking a very broad historical view, so he's talking about centuries of conflict and conquest, where Western countries perceive these traditional, magical, Eastern places as incapable of any real modernity," Samatar says.

In her latest anthology Forms of Enchantment: Writings on Art and Artists, historian and mythographer Marina Warner shows us a third way: a lengthy introduction the author  argues in favor of art writing that should be "as dynamic as the work itself," and the way she does that is by extensively discussing each work or the artist she examines in their anthropological, psychological, philosophical, and religious context, before taking any stabs at interpreting the work itself.
He specializes particularly in relocating the everyday angst of adolescence to fantasy landscapes, as in his impeccably engineered, Tony Award-winning script for "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child," about the growing pains of second-generation wizards, and his sensitive stage adaptation of the Swedish teen vampire flick "Let the Right One In."
