When writing my little list of movies I'd like to see I forgot about an honest portrayal of accidental pregnancy.
White, middle class teenage girl probably is more likely to have an abortion than give the kid up for adoption.
White, middle class successful tv host is probably going to have an abortion and not a relationship with the pot head who knocked her up.
And poor pregnant waitresses never become millionaires.
I would like to see pregnant teen discovers she's knocked up and then goes through a nightmarish process to come up with the money to pay for an abortion. And doesn't regret it for a second. That's way closer to reality.
