Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Michelle Monaghan and Radha Mitchell had previously starred together in 2010's 'Due Date,' making this their reunion as dramatically different friends.

Cultural

The film quietly interrogates 2010s 'have it all' motherhood pressure—Lizzie's desperation for a baby she can't carry herself feels specifically post-recession, pre-Roe anxiety.
