Nobody's Baby

2001 · 110 min

A scruffy, offbeat road movie that mixes lowlife crime with unexpected tenderness, leaving you amused and oddly touched.

Directed by
David Seltzer
Genres
Comedy
Overview
Two not so bright small time crooks end up with a baby girl by "accident" and find a change in their lives. Billy (Ulrich) becomes the guy to take care of the child and look after it. Buford (Oldman) wants to get rid of it, but the others they knit with are for doing the best they can. They conspire to rob a pawn shop to get the necessary money, only to end up heroes for stopping a heist already in play.
How it feels
Dark, absurd, warm and cynical. Measured and easy to follow.
About
Parenthood, found family, crime, redemption
Content
