Babes (2024)


Girl gets knocked up (unplanned, of course) and while the father is out of the picture, her best friend (who has recently given birth) supports her in her decision to keep it. This inevitably leads to a falling out since one of the women is much more immature than the other. It's a modest comedy that sounds a lot shittier on the surface, but the relationship between the two friends feels very realistic and I had no regrets by the end of it (though you definitely have to be in a particular type of mood). It kind of plays like a cross between Broad City and Better Things, so I'd recommend it to fans of those shows. John Carroll Lynch's hair journey throughout was fucking hilarious.
