And Baby Will Fall Trailers

Expectant parents become prime suspects in the disappearance of a pregnant woman who was last seen at their garage sale. Model citizen David Rose runs a garden center and is a devoted house-father. Like his wife Ivy, who suffered two stillbirths, their new neighbor Melinda is near to giving birth. Just after David showed her around in the Rose home, Melinda goes missing. Although no corpse is found, just circumstantial evidence more likely to be planted then stupidly left behind, police detective Blanchard treats David as his sole suspect, soon arrested, even after nosy neighbor Bindel is knocked down while David is in jail. School buddy Theo does his best to counsel the couple, yet Ivy doubts her husband's innocence just because of indications he may have had an affair with Melinda since high-school, and starts snooping with her best friend Jody. The worst crime is still being hatched.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

A nightmare awakens pretty pregnant Anastasia Griffith (as Ivy). After two miscarriages, Ms. Griffith is afraid of losing another baby. Handsome husband Brendan Fehr (as David Rose) assures her they're not leaving the hospital without a live baby. To make room in their big, beautiful house, the happy couple has a yard sale. Their high school classmate Clea DuVall (as Melinda "Mindy" White) attends. Coincidently, Ms. DuVall is quite visible pregnant. A fourth former classmate, lawyer Stephen Lobo (as Theo Gavros) enters the story. Good thing he's a lawyer, because everyone's going to need one before this story is over...Director Bradley Walsh and his crew do a good job keeping this "Lifetime" TV movie interesting. Cheers to Mr. Walsh and film editor Roger Mattiussi for making the simple pulling of a piece glass from the lead actress's foot look real and nasty. Having the main players know each other back to their high school days (at least) adds some depth to the usual formula. Therein, we do find a good reason for the villain's derangement. However, it does add a problem to the mix. That being, with everything else seeming fine in their relationship, it's difficult to believe one character thinks another character is capable of such a gruesome murder. In spite of this challenge, the players do well in their roles. The ending is way too rough for any miscarriage-prone mother, but it keeps you watching.***** And Baby Will Fall (2011-01-23) Bradley Walsh ~ Anastasia Griffith, Brendan Fehr, Clea DuVall, Stephen Lobo

I really liked this movie, from start to end. I found it very interesting and I actually didn't think it was predictable as others mentioned. I'd say there was a few moments that you could say were predictable, but those scenes still had mystery and excitement and were intentionally put there for viewer enjoyment. The scene when a nurse is injecting the expectant mother is an obvious moment, when you can predict that the nurse is not working with the hospital. However the movie does this on purpose to create that mystery. As the nurse looks through the glass door watching that she isn't caught. Also the villain is portrayed really well and in the end you will see how obsessed and delusional the character was, which gave the storyline merit. What could have been a really stupid twist at the end, was actually very believable due to great acting and writing.I would have liked to see an outcome for what happened to the poor little dog.Overall, a very entertaining movie. I was able to watch it without using my laptop or phone.

You know, every time you see a cute little dog in a movie like this, the "villain" winds up killing it--a cheap device to prove how "evil" they are. As an animal lover, I am so weary of this scenario. Though I was wary as soon as they showed the dog, I hoped this convention would be bypassed this time. I was actually enjoying this movie up to the point the heroine discovered the dog's body in the crib, and annoyed that this crime was never referred to again. Did anyone but me feel for the dog's elderly female owner? who was bashed on the head and also lost her pet, likely her only companion. Or are we just supposed to forget that and be happy that the heroine's seemingly endless pregnancy finally culminated in a birth.

And Baby Will Fall is a much-better than average, meat-and-potatoes psychological thriller. It's a TV movie airing on Lifetime Movie Network, so the best that I hope for is a well crafted story that engages and entertains me - keeps me in my chair for two hours. And Baby Will Fall not only kept me glued to it, it provided a few surprising and fun twists and turns along the way. The second hour is particularly fast-paced. All three of the lead actors turn in strong performances. Anastasia Griffith and Brenden Fehr make a visually beautiful pairing and the tension that grows between their characters as the drama unfolds is authentic and original. Without giving anything away, Clea Duvall steals the last act of the movie with a shrewd performance that could have gone horribly wrong in the hands of a lesser actor. This is a well-made movie with strong performances and a fun story. It's the type of entertainment I hope for when I tune-in to LMN.
