so, I saw the VVitch, I'd say pretty poor in a lot of ways. Really decent acting, good cinematography and a real nice sound track. The story is s'posed to be from period chronicles, but it was a really poor representation of most of Calvinist thought, and was seen thru a very modern sensibility. A very modern treatment of childhood vs how they were seen back then, and a total lack of Indians, who played a huge part in the outlook of these early settlers. Just read Young Goodman Brown or Cotton Mather for a real representation.
