      Akira and the spelling bee - 11-year-old girl's persistence

      11-year-old Akira Anderson won the National Spelling Bee after four passes. The final word that must win or lose is: Pulchritude

      likes Akira portrayed in the movie because she is logical. What makes sense is that this girl has the self-pity, rebellion and pursuit that most 11-year-old children...

      It's not just words, it's an acknowledgment of yourself!

    Akeelah and the Bee quotes

    • [last lines]

      Akeelah: You know that feeling where everything feels right? Where you don't have to worry about tomorrow or yesterday, where you feel safe and know you're doing the best you can? There's a word for that, it's called love. L-O-V-E.

    • Mr. Welch: So whoever wins the school bee today gets to represent Crenshaw at the district bee next month.

      Akeelah: Why would anybody want to represent a school where they can't even put doors on the toilet stalls?

      [coughing]

      Mr. Welch: Akeelah, if we can't show students can perform, we're not going to have money for books, let alone bathroom doors.

      [pause]

      Mr. Welch: Now, I want you to do the bee today, okay?

      Akeelah: So everyone can call me a freak and a brainiac? No, I ain't down for no spelling bee.

      Mr. Welch: Well, maybe you'd be down for spending the rest of the semester in detention for all your absences?
