Recently Watched: Citizen Ruth



Citizen Ruth is a satirical look at the abortion issue. The film focuses on a small-town woman named Ruth that likes to huff stuff....this woman is played by Laura Dern.

Ruth has four children (none of which are under her care) and pretty soon into the film she finds out that she is pregnant with numero 5. Ruth gets arrested when the po po find her huffing paint in an alley--- and because she is pregnant she is charged with a felony for endangering her unborn child. The judge is all well bitch if you get an abortion we can just forget about it. Well, Ruth is supposed to be really stupid and she doesn't know what to do. So then in comes the pro baby killers and the anti baby killers who try to sway her different ways despite the fact that they don't really care about her as a person/ her situation (being a homeless huffer.)

Its pretty strange, its funny.. but if your mom is a drug addict you probably won't think its funny.
