Movie Haiku:A witch (Streep) instructs a baker (Corden) on items needed to reverse a curse. Searching "in the woods," he meets Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood & other familiar fairy tale characters. Gorgeously realized adaptation of Sondheim/Lapine musical. Hearts are broken; lessons are learned; some even live happily ever after. A holiday delight! NOT YET SEEN BY RICH
