Salon.com: “October Baby”: The abortion war hits theaters, by Andrew O’Hehir:
An outrageous premise fuels a viral-marketed pro-life drama aimed at Christian viewers
In most respects, Andrew and Jon Erwin’s “October Baby” looks and feels like a typical female coming-of-age story, the kind of low-budget family melodrama made by indie filmmakers who are auditioning for a Hollywood career or cable-TV assignments. It’s built around a lovely young actress named Rachel Hendrix, who’s got lustrous brown hair and big brown eyes and manages to look impeccably groomed in every scene, including the ones where she’s wandering the streets of Mobile, Ala., on her own, or waking up on a hotel-lobby sofa. . . .
