Babies had, babies lost, babies adopted, babies given away... Babies in my soup...
5 June 2011
I have no particular criticism about the technical or artistic qualities of this movie or seeing it as an entertainment light enough to pass away a couple of hours just watching all these problems with having babies, adopting babies, caring for babies, bathing babies, dying to have babies... I just wonder... are women lives SO limited that the only way to fulfill their humdrum little lives is ONLY by having babies??? I'm sorry folks, I find that aim in life so limiting that I cannot believe an intelligent woman cannot find any other way to happiness and fulfillment in her life. I just can't. I refuse to believe it. For men is so easy, man takes pleasure and disappears if he so decides, but women..., women are stuck for ever with the consequences! What about ART, what about a fulfilling career, what about LIVING??? A woman that has a child is burdened with "it" for life! As the character in the movie that got the adopted baby girl (finally, because one more minute of her struggles and I would have stopped the projection!!!) realizes, when the child howls away for HOURS, that this is no rosy picture and heavenly perfumes... (she would gladly return the baby to whomever gave it to her in the first place). Well, all that said, I swear never again to watch movies with howling babies in it.
