And Baby Makes Six (1979 TV Movie)
8/10
Nice old school TV movie

I don't watch a steady diet of TV movies but I often watch them for the actors of which I try to complete all their movies. And since AND BABY MAKES SIX was available on YouTube I knew that I had to see it some day, and when I did last June I liked more than what I was lead to with the overall score.

Anna and Michael Kramer (Colleen Dewhurst and Warren Oates) are married and with three children. Problems are behind the corner when Anna is suddenly pregnant; she wants the baby but her husband is not interested in raising another kid. Their now adult children, along with their friends, all have their views on this. The Kramer's marriage is put to the test until she finally delivers and the husband will accept him.

The acting was great by all. Dewhurst played the part of the mom that doesn't care to have another child in her household well, and Oates, despite is a familiar face of westerns, is good tho as her husband. The other cast members (including veteran Mildred Dunnock and a then-unknown Timothy Hutton in his debut performance) were good as well.

Overall, another worth-watching TV movie even tho I assume that it must have raised some eyebrows for the subject of a 46 year old woman pregnant.
