Though it has been years since I saw "Listen", I remember it not for the quality of the acting, which I thought was fine, but for delivering the most eloquent argument against abortion I had ever seen, even to this day.  Any movie that gets the range of comments that have been posted, from rave to rage, is certainly has to be called controversial.  So the debate scenes did not match up to the life experiences of some, it is a STORY.  Its message is very, very strong, and delivered quite effectively.  Isn't that what movies, books, plays, photography, et al are about? I just saw "Cider House Rules", the flip side of the abortion discussion from "Listen". Try watching "Listen" and "Cider House" back to back for what should be quite an emotional and intellectual experience.  I rate both films at least 9 out of 10.

PS: I am 64, male, anti-abortion, and pro-choice.
