Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Uncommon Valor (1983)?
a.
Gillians cat is named Pyewacket. This name has become a popular one for cats because of this movie, but few know its origin: Pyewacket was one of the familiar spirits of a witch detected by the "witchfinder general" Matthew Hopkins in March 1644 in the town of Maningtree, Essex, UK. He claimed he spied on the witches as they held their meeting close by his house, and heard them mention the name of a local woman. She was arrested and deprived of sleep for four nights, at the end of which she confessed and named her familiars, describing their forms. They were: Holt Jarmara Vinegar Tom Sacke and Sugar Newes Ilemauzer Pyewacket Pecke in the Crowne Griezzel Greedigutt Hopkins says he and nine other witnesses saw the first five of these, which appeared in the forms described by the witch. Only the first of these was a cat; the next two were dogs, and the others were a black rabbit and a polecat. So its not clear whether Pyewacket was a cats name or not. As for the meanings, Hopkins says only that they were such that "no mortall could invent." The incident is described in Hopkinss pamphlet "The Discovery of Witches" (1647).
