Rather than "Does Judith kill Holofernes?" I think a good major dramatic question for Judith is "Will Judith get control of her country?" I believe that this question is answered, but what she has to go through to get there almost makes it not even worth is. The murders the man she fall in love with and attempts to have sex with his dead body. She may have come out of the exchange as a new person, even taking on Holofernes' commanding demeanor, but it all came at a steep price. I may just be a hopeless romantic, sue me.
