We want a child is one of those films concocted by Well meaning and competent authorities on the sex. In an Endeavor to be wholesome and Well meaning about the whole thing films of this Type turn out to be rather common place affairs in which the plot is always pushed aside while somebody delivers a message.

Before too Ioir the sin is e girl is expecting a child while the Bride i rods to her dismay that an Abor Tion May stand in the Way of her having a any children. The two parallel stories Are used to Point up the evils of abortion and the film winds up happily with a delivery of a healthy baby to the married woman. The acting is strictly of a routine order and strangely enough the Best performance comes from the Only non professional member of the cast. He is or. Karen Berg one of Copen Hagen s Foremost gynaecologists. There is a lot of Good information for those who need it. But to those who expect a film that tells its Story within the Frame work of a scenarist who does t like to interrupt his Story for a lecture might be disappointed.
