Review of Milkwater

Milkwater (2020)
7/10
An OK drama about the pitfalls of surrogacy
14 October 2020
As a lesbian couple is holding a baby shower, a straight-woman friend meets a 50-something bartender / drag artist who desperately wants a baby, but has failed both on adoption and surrogacy. She impulsively offers to be his surrogate. As the pregnancy progresses, the two parents' diverging ideas / fantasies of how the child will be raised start to conflict.

This is a good study of the pitfalls of surrogacy, where there is no signed-in-advance contract, or even a pre-negotiated agreement between friends. My quibble is whether someone over 50 really should be looking towards having a baby alone.
