I stumbled upon a link to a free version of the film, "The Business of Being Born" online.
http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=8597620254789409121
I saw the film last fall and got a chance to meet the film's Exec Producer, Ricki Lake. As a mother of three children, I found the film very informative about the current state of maternity care in the US. The film has gotten a lot of press lately so I thought I would share it. It's about and hour and a half long and very good at explaining both sides of the business of birth though you have to watch the entire movie to be able to see that (it is heavily one-sided at the beginning toward natural birth).
I am interested to see what everybody says (good or bad) about the film.
Thanks.
