...Stevens’ “If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out,” guaranteed to enrage any “Harold and Maude” fan. Attempting to draw such a connection comes off as cheap and contrived, a sad reminder of how poorly the movie tries to encapsulate every cinematic teenage rebel of the last half-century.The film’s many unoriginal lines perhaps best exemplify this. At a party, the football captain, one of the countless students who feels he can trust the all-knowing Charlie, confesses that he has always wanted...

Liberals worry about egg selling and womb rental, about poor women being exploited to help rich women have children--but they don't want to push too hard, because reproductive freedom is a hallowed right. Conservatives struggle to explain why they oppose using leftover frozen embryos for stem-cell research but don't oppose their creation in the first place...
