Baby Love

About This Movie

So, 'Baby Love' from 1979 is this quirky little comedy that wades into some pretty murky waters. The plot revolves around a queen and her stepdaughter, aptly named Baby Love, who finds herself the center of an odd marriage auction. It’s got this strange blend of light-hearted moments and deeper themes about sexual awakening that make it stand out. The pacing is a bit uneven, but that just adds to its charm, I suppose. The performances are all over the place, but there’s something kind of endearing about it. It's not your standard romp; it plays with ideas of desire and autonomy in a really peculiar way. The practical effects are minimal, but the real draw is how it captures that late '70s vibe, full of mischief and innocence.

Finding a copy of 'Baby Love' can be a bit of a treasure hunt; it’s not nearly as common as other comedies from the era. There have been a handful of releases over the years, but it seems to fly under the radar for many collectors. The blend of humor and controversial themes makes it an interesting piece, often sparking conversation among those who appreciate the more eccentric side of cinema from the late '70s.
