She's Having a Baby

She's Having a Baby is a 1988 American romantic comedy film directed and written by John Hughes and starring Kevin Bacon and Elizabeth McGovern.

Meanwhile, Jake fantasizes about having an affair with a mysterious young French model though, when the opportunity looks to be presenting itself, he can't bring himself to do it.

During a traumatic labor in which it is discovered the baby is in a breech position with its head caught in the birth canal, Jake must leave the delivery room.

He worries about losing Kristy, realizing that his lack of satisfaction in life was due to his own selfishness and immaturity.

The song during the birth sequence is "This Woman's Work" by Kate Bush and is featured on her 1989 album The Sensual World.

In the video for Dave Wakeling's title song, he performs alongside a female backup singer; behind them, a huge screen displays various clips from the movie.

The site's consensus states: "Kevin Bacon and Elizabeth McGovern struggle to sustain a spark in She's Having a Baby, a blasé adult romance that lacks the specificity and style of writer-director John Hughes' more successful forays into teenage angst.

He wrote that the film "begins with the simplest and most moving of stories and interrupts it with an amazing assortment of gimmicks," being salvaged only by strong performances from Bacon and McGovern.
