I tuned into Tallulah because of the near enough justifiable madness I saw in the trailer; a person taking a stranger’s baby because said stranger is without a doubt an unfit mother.

Starring Ellen Page, Allison Janney, Tammy Blanchard  and written/ directed by Sian Heder, Tallulah has a thing or two to say about the sacrifice that is motherhood. Especially via Blanchard’s unfit mother/dissatisfied Beverly Hills housewife character.

Well-edited and acted, it’s worth watching for the story . But, also, for the chance to have all the evidence so you can think about how close you’d have come to ‘taking the baby’, calling child protective services, doing nothing, or something else entirely, had you been in Page’s character’s position. Ponder on that dear friends!

Happy Film Loving,
