Baby Boom
- Who's watched: M & G
- Mentions: None
- Commentary: We both adore this movie. I've rented it a couple of times, so finally decided it was time to buy it. Mom has an attraction to movies about people who aren't prepared to handle babies but have to, anyway. I don't like babies, particularly, but I do like stories of inventive entrepreneurship under impossible circumstances and I like Diane Keaton.
It's interesting for me to note, as well, that this movie scored two write-ups on RogerEbert.com. The first is linked to the title of this post. The other is significant as a 30th anniversary celebration of this movie here, written by Joyce Kulhawik.
