05/12/2022 Lois Weber and Phillips Smalley gave the American society a thought-provoking film that directly addresses an assortment of impermissible and controversial subjects that are still being discussed over a century later. Where Are My Children? is a straightforward film about its subject matter regarding abortion that also explores other character's perspectives on abortion through multiple story lines and subplots. Where Are My Children? is a good film that was ahead of its time with this dramatization of the moral and legal dilemmas within our American society.

The haunting final scenes are effective movie making even if they imply very specific and limited sources of happiness in life.

I thought this was thought provoking and bold. It's just sad to me that history seems to have all but forgotten Lois Weber.
