(OPINION) ETH– HBO has released the trailer of its newest movie called “Unpregant” that appears to reduce the seriousness of abortion to merely a comedy which many are concerned is sending out the wrong message to impressionable young girls.
Unpregnant is a controversial abortion “comedy” movie set to premiere on HBO Max on September 10th. The film is based on the novel and tells the story of Veronica, who is a pregnant 17-year-old girl, and her friend Bailey, that goes on a wild road trip from Missouri to New Mexico so that Veronica can get an abortion.
According to RT News, “In the trailer, Unpregnant sells itself as a zany road picture where hilarity ensues when a goofy odd couple of teenage girls steal a car and try to hop a train on their epic odyssey down the yellow brick road to abortionland.”
The movie Unpregnant appears to make light of abortion and demonizing Veronica’s Catholic parents as “Jesus freaks.” because they oppose it. 2020 has seen a lot of pro-abortion films with Unpregnant, the critically acclaimed drama Never Rarely Sometimes Always, and the indie dramedy Saint Frances, which all have an amoral attitude toward abortion. Afterall, Polling reveals that a majority of Americans are pro-choice in some form.
