Obvious Child

CriticsCritics: 83
AudienceAudience: 6.8

A newly unemployed comedian is still figuring out adulthood when an unexpected pregnancy follows a casual encounter with a graduate student. As she juggles personal upheaval and her comedy career, she must face difficult choices and make room for an unexpected new connection.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like awkward, heartfelt comedies about romance, growing up, and difficult personal choices; Not for you if you prefer broad comedy or a story that avoids abortion as a central topic.
