For Families:  

Horton Hears a Who (2008)  A jovial elephant named Horton discovers there are tiny people living on a speck of dust and decides to protect them – no matter what his teasing friends in the jungle say. Horton is passionate about those tiny people because, well, “a person's a person, no matter how small.” The pro-life community has long considered this Dr. Seuss story an ally – and this film doesn’t disappoint in delivering a strong pro-life message.

Storks (2016) A young boy who wants a sibling sends a letter to Stork Mountain, a far-off place that supposedly delivers babies to loving families (via storks, of course). His workaholic parents, though, are clueless about his action. Storks is a mostly kid-friendly animated movie with positive messages about adoption, childrearing and the blessings of family. (An adoption organization was a film partner.) It’s also hilarious. Rated PG for mild action and some thematic elements. 

Unplanned (2019) A young woman works her way up the employment chain at a Texas Planned Parenthood clinic and becomes its director. But her views on abortion are quickly transformed when she is asked to assist with the grisly procedure. The movie was based on the true story of Abby Johnson, a former Planned Parenthood director who became a leader in the pro-life movement. It’s rated R for some disturbing/bloody images.
Gosnell (2018)  Police investigate a Philadelphia abortion doctor and uncover a litany of horrors, including bloodstained furniture, cat feces on the floor and a stench of urine throughout the clinic. Worse, they discover the abortion doctor had been killing babies born alive by snipping their spinal cords. Gosnell tells the true story of the investigation and trial of abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell. It stars Dean Cain as detective James Wood. Gosnell isn’t easy to watch, but it just might impact how you view abortion. Rated PG-13 for mature thematic content including disturbing images and descriptions.
