Not Kate's finest hour
7 February 2020
If you don't like Katharine Hepburn and you're looking for more ammunition to dislike her, rent The Little Minister. I adore her, so this isn't one I'd choose to watch more than once. Her Scottish accent isn't the greatest, her character isn't the most likable, and the story isn't the most riveting in the world.

Kate is pushy and rebellious, and when Reverend John Beal makes it clear he wants nothing to do with her, she keeps deliberately crossing his path and bothering him. She's a gypsy on the side of the poor and working classes, and of course, because she doesn't take no for an answer, John finally comes over to her way of thinking. Just as in Spitfire, their romance affects the town and makes the townspeople turn against them-for no real reason. I might have missed that plot point when I fast-forwarded part of the movie.
