In this half of the episode we're talking about Hanna, directed by Joe Wright and starring Saoirse Ronan in the title role. This is truly a modern-day story, with story beats that have fairy-tale aspects to them...and a couple of scenes that are more overtly related to fairy tales.
This film was the basis for the Amazon Prime TV series of the same name, and we spend a little time exploring the differences between the two.
