Featured review
The Witch
It is 10 months on after his escape and Dr Richard Kimble is still on the run. Pretending to be Jim Fowler, a delivery driver the small townsfolk regard him to be too close with an attractive schoolteacher Miss Norton. Kimble spends a lot of time in the library with her.
A schoolgirl Jenny Ammory who has a history of lying accuses Miss Norton of improper behaviour with Kimble. This is revealed to be untrue as there were other kids present.
Then she accuses Kimble of chasing her in the woods. This riles the menfolk to try and lynch Kimble.
Now I did wonder what the community had against two single people romancing each other even if this was not actually the case. Worse Kimble gets in a fight with his boss who thinks Miss Norton is his woman even though she does not go out with the boss. The boss essentially threatens to run Kimble out of town for being friendly to a woman he himself fancies.
The Witch is really about a naughty child who maliciously lies and a weirdly intolerant community. It is a wonder how Kimble lasted so long, although I did wonder why he elected not to keep his head down, instead he ended up fighting his boss.
