On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued its landmark 7–2 decision in Roe v. Wade, protecting a woman’s constitutional right to choose. Nearly a half-century later, on June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. In the year that has followed that decision, a flurry of new legislation on abortion has been introduced, with many women now finding themselves in states where abortion is unavailable or severely restricted. Without federal protections, state legislatures are now determining abortion access, with some states increasing restrictions or even banning access while others are improving and protecting it.
From the silent days to the present, films have tried to reflect changing attitudes toward abortion. But no matter how many stories are told, people complain that the issue has not been covered well enough...
