By Rev. Canon Victor Lee Austin:
"One is not likely to think of Barbie as a pro-life film. ... Nonetheless, this film sets up viewers to see things that the pro-choice lenses of our elite culture (in which I include Hollywood) normally filter out."

"We all do what we can in our unique circumstances. But the recent sentencing of Operation Rescue participants who blocked access to the killing center of a late-stage abortionist in the nation’s capital back in 2020, shows just how far some brave prolifers will go—up to 57 months in prison, in fact."

From the Spring issue of the Human Life Review
By Leonard F. Grant III.:
"When we talk about abortion in terms of science—whether or not a woman develops a mental pathology in the aftermath of her abortion—we reduce her, her lost child, and the circumstances of the abortion to statistics. ...

By Peter Pavia:
"Hollywood’s Golden Age is generally defined as the period between the advent of the 'talkies' (with The Jazz Singer in 1927) and the early-to-mid 1960s, when the major studios were producing historical epics, hallucinogenic musicals, and other big-budget extravaganzas that appealed to the widest possible audiences. ... I’ve long thought the one movie that best exemplifies this Golden Age is The Best Years of Our Lives."
