Many excellent pro-life movies and documentaries have been recently released covering a wide spectrum of our issues. In fact, the movies seem to be coming so fast I have delayed posting this column several weeks to try to catch the latest. Even last week I read of one more but have to draw the line somewhere.
My star rating is out of four possible. Because of the volume, I am providing thumbnail reviews. Films are listed in alphabetical order....
Stars: 2-1/2
Released Spring 2009. Dove-family approved. 93 minutes. Fiction.
Synopsis: Pro-life college law student argues against Roe v. Wade in “moot court” while pro-abortion mother argues against parental notification before US Supreme Court. Patrick Henry College student production (and school infomercial) - impressive in that regard but not up to Hollywood standards. Good information on Roe v. Wade decision; good love story role modeling. $10-15 online.
Stars: 4
Released Spring 2008. 56 minutes. Documentary.
Synopsis: Details the catastrophic social and economic consequences of the worldwide population decline. Sobering, must see - more than once. $18 online.
The follow-up to this movie, Demographic Bomb, was released June 20, but I only have seen a press release.
Lines That Divide: The Great Stem Cell Debate
Stars: 4
Released June 2009. 57 minutes. Documentary.
Synopsis: First, I promise this film is not boring, making excellent use of movie clips and celebrity sound bites in combination with graphics and interviews of scientists on both sides of the debate. Covered are not only ethics but women’s health as well as media, political and terminology obfuscation. Very current information provided. $20 online.
Read thumbnail reviews of 5 more pro-life films in my column today, “Eight new pro-life films shine,” at WorldNetDaily.com
In addition, several weeks ago I asked you to list names of pro-life films of which you were aware and got many, many responses. (Thanks!) There is a pro-life angle to more movies than I thought. I have listed names you gave me on page 2 in alphabetical order. If you think of more, I’ll add them to the list.
