Charlotte Allen closes her observations:
The most refreshing event of the choice-rally in my book took place at the film-festival movie we saw last evening, which was also attended by many marchers before they left town. The movie, “Two Summers,” a Brazilian entry, was, as chance would have it, about abortion. Actually, it was about an abortion scam. A pretty blonde con-artist would pick up naive young men on the Rio beaches, seduce them, and then get them to chip in for her supposed abortion. Except that after many a comic turn involving one of the youths who falls in love with her, she actually gets pregnant, and–oh no!–she and her young swain get married and keep the baby! As the audience clapped appreciatively while the loving parents cooed over little Jasmin in her sun-hat, two scowling abortion-marchers in the seat in front of us marched dramatically out of the theater to show that they were Not Amused. My grin got all the wider.
