ROE VS. WADE AFI Salutes the Television Movie

This 1989 production is the superb telling of the true story of Norma Mccorvey (Jane Roe), an unwed mother whose landmark case before the U S. Supreme Court led to the legalization of abortion in 1973. A powerful and subtle examination of this controversial issue with excellent performances from Holly Hunter and Amy Madigan.
