PUNQ

Rated 12 Jan 2014

Watching Hepburn as a religious driven outcast hillbilly sure triggered my interest. This for the most part works as a solo film where we are invited into her space with interruptions from some mountain pals and outsider engineers living in the woods nearby. But it's always her that sets the mood. And I really loved this up to the point of the confrontation with the other mountain folks. After that Spitfire kind of winded down losing it's steam and just mumbled along in it's mellow pace.
