So what's wrong with sentimental, Roger??
24 February 2002
"The Spitfire Grill" tells of the influence of one young woman (Elliott) on the people of a small town in Maine. A multifaceted, soapy, and unabashed chick-flick, this critically panned audience pleaser is sentimental almost to a fault. From its sepia tinged warmth to its Norman Rockwell stereotypes to it's plaintive orchestral score to its contrived storyline, etc., this flick is out to tug at your heart strings and jerk that tear from your eye. Sentimentalists should kick back, turn off brain, and enjoy. All others, find something else to watch.
