About Spitfire
Dirt-poor mountain girl Trigger Hicks is a loner. Her faith-healing is mistaken for witchcraft by the community. She falls for an engineer building a dam, who protects her.
Directed by John Cromwell, Spitfire leans on a strong ensemble — Katharine Hepburn, Robert Young, Ralph Bellamy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1934.
