A twenty-something comedienne's unplanned pregnancy forces her to confront the realities of independent womanhood for the first time.When I found it on iTunes my first thought was PINKY lol. Din;'t know about this movie before I watched. But it looked interesting soSIO rent it
This movie was incredible. Jenny Slate is wonderfully relatable and real, and the film somehow managed to dodge every romcom trope I had expected of it. The premise didn't really grab me, a young female comedian finds herself pregnant after a one night stand. Meh, I assumed it would avoid any real commitment into discussing the reality of abortion, or the terror that can often come with the discovery of having a potential human inside of you.
Obvious Child is a very ballsy film just for the fact that it deals with abortion which is such a hot button topic nowadays. However, unlike some films, it doesn't take a side. It presents abortion and the effect a decision like that can have on a woman in a very realistic fashion while delivering a very sweet romantic comedy.
