Wow. If I didn’t urge you to see “The Business of Being Born” when it was playing in very select theaters, I’m definitely urging you to see it now. For free. Online. It doesn’t get much easier than that. I just watched it for the 2nd time and it was as amazing, emotional and thought-provoking as the first time. Two of my favorite birth scholars, Robbie Davis-Floyd and Michel Odent are in the film. Also, the documentary is set in NYC, so many of the names, faces and places are familiar to me. If Abby Epstein and Ricki Lake didn’t make this, I would have. Seriously.
