Quote:
"[In Parsley Days] immediately upon discovering her condition, Kate opts to have an abortion. For her, the decision is quick and unequivocal—no agonizing, no moralizing, end of story. South of the border, of course, that would be the whole story. To treat the abortion issue as essentially a non-event, subservient to larger themes, would be impossible in a Hollywood film."
