Film This Week in Film: Babies
Posted by Lindy West on Mon, May 10, 2010 at 10:33 AM
I wrote about Babies!
Let me get this out of the way before I get back to making fun of babies and Babies—the babies are fucking CUTE. I declare Namibian Baby to be most charming, Mongolian Baby most hilarious, Japanese Baby most so-so, and American Baby most least-memorable. I'm pretty sure it's biologically impossible not to find babies cute—Charles Darwin engineered it that way so we don't eat our own young (right?). But with zero dialogue and less plot, it's easy to doze off a little bit during Babies.
QUESTION. Are babies cute? Or are they gross, sticky fart factories!? Are some mutant people immune to the charms of babies? The debate rages! Read the full review and comment HERE.
