By far one of the best performances by an actress of that or any year.Vera Drake took on a complex subject in a subtle and complex manner. It was not pro-abortion to my mind - ithe film did however pointedly illustrate the hypocracy of class disctinctions in obtaining them in 1950s Britain. The film also portrayed the emotional costs to all over the course of events in the film. No easy conlcusions should be drawn here. Thet leaves the viewer to form his/her own opinions.
You are certainly entitled to yours.
