Tony Kaye's masterpiece documentary on the abortion issue carefully walks both sides of the issue, showing those for and those against the right to choose. Kaye's film is unflinching in its portrayal of the subject where we do see the end result of the procedure in graphic detail (thank god the film is black and white). No matter which side you sit on the film will give you pause to think about whether your "side" is the right one. What I admire most is that the film gives us both the radical and the intellectual of both sides, we get the nut jobs and we get the reasoned. The result is a film that is all the more quietly devastating in its power since you are forced to see the other side. If the film leans toward any side, it is perhaps in the end angled toward humanity in that in the end we watch as a young woman goes in for an abortion and we see the toll it takes on her.She is not a loose woman who is cavalier in her attitude as the right would have us all believe, nor is she a self assured young woman strong in her conviction as many in the left would like to make the women having abortions to be. She is a human being. She is a person and she is conflicted by her choice. It is here that Kaye makes a great film, a great statement by reducing all of the talk down to a person and her choice and real feelings and the real cost and the real experience, and not an intellectual argument or religious belief. It is a long tough film. It is a great film, that has no answers. See the film, just be prepared to be thinking about it for a long time afterward..
