Spell it W-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l!

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee rocks the world with a funny yet touching rendition of the ever loved memories of a “spelling bee.” We find 6 students in a spell off. A sweet, shy girl who’s finds solace in words, last year’s winner who is growing in more ways than one, a precocious young lady with a father that would stop at nothing to make her the champ, an over achiever who twirls a baton, does the splits, plays the piano and speaks six languages, a quivering mass of a boy who writes out the words with his foot and a perpetual second runner up. They may be able to spell words like capybara, and pyrrhuloxia but that doesn’t even even begin to spell their insecurities.
