Spellbound (2002)
8/10
great real life drama
2 December 2015
This documentary follows eight kids as they compete in the 1999 Scripps National Spelling Bee aiming to be in the finals taking place in Washington, D.C.

By 1999, the competition had garnered some popular interest as it gets broadcast on ESPN.

There are so many human emotions in these awkward sincere kids. It is beyond charming.

There are more unpredictable turns than anything from Hollywood. The Washington rounds are more thrilling than any CGI-filled fights. This is a true life drama of an innocent American tradition.
