Movie Reviews of Babyfever
Movie Review: One of the TOP 10 Women's Movies of ALL TIME!
Summary: 5 Stars
Like all of Henry Jaglom films, Babyfever will only appeal to the top 20% of the world's population that are intelligent enough to understand and appreciate the genius of Henry Jaglom's films and who actually bother to honestly think about where their lives have been, presently are, seem to be going, and why. This film is a MUST SEE for all who've had children and who still can have children or who plan to have families through alternative means. There has never been a film before or since that maps out the treacherous territory of contemporary motherhood. Those who love this movie should also be sure to read Anne Crittenden's "The Price of Motherhood" for further discussion and exploration of these issues. This film is one of my favorite films of ALL TIME!
Summary of Babyfever
Director Henry Jaglom has used his familiar cinéma verité formula more effectively in the past, particularly with Eating. This time Jaglom's real-life wife and cowriter, Victoria Foyt, frets over a pregnancy with a man she is not sure she loves. The setting is a baby shower in Malibu, where a roomful of women shares angst over their biological clocks and the terrors and delights of mommyhood. Jaglom has much to say, but his trademark humor is less apparent than usual and Foyt's performance borders on the shrill. The subplot, involving Zack Norman as an executive desperately trying to raise money, is superfluous. This fictionalized documentary is one of Jaglom's more indulgent efforts, but a Jaglom production is always worth the effort, even when he is not in top form. --Rochelle O'GormanSimilar DVD Movies
