If you wanted to, but did not get an opportunity to see the documentary “Babies” when it opened in a limited number of theaters earlier this year, your wait is finally over! It’s been available on iTunes, Apple TV and DirecTV for a while, but now the cuteness of “Babies” is available everywhere on DVD! The trailer, if you’ve never seen it:

I believe the remedy for war and terror lies in this simple act: that all men and women whose hearts are dark and angry, sullen or selfish, hurried or hollow, should hold newborns and contemplate life’s fragile and superfluous beauty.

One heads up: there is quite a bit of “cultural and maternal nudity” throughout the movie, mostly bare breasts. I know some people can be sensitive about these things when deciding whether or not to let their kids watch something, though, I would submit that this kind of nudity is a nice contrast to the image they are used to seeing of women in our pop culture (even when they’re not fully undressed) and a good opportunity to teach young people about the true beauty of the human body and how to view it with the dignity and respect that it deserves.
