What The Cider House Rules Is About
Lasse Hallström's 1999 film follows a young man raised in an orphanage who learns medicine there. He wants to see the world outside. He goes to work with the pickers at an apple orchard. The film takes on the argument over abortion directly; the narrative shows that those who set the rules live outside them. John Irving adapted his own novel and the screenplay won an Academy Award, as did Michael Caine. It runs close to two hours. Who it's for: those who like classically told drama. Who it's not for: viewers unprepared for incest and abortion; the film treats both directly.
