Mom and Dad

A 1945 American sexploitation film directed by William Beaudine and largely produced by Kroger Babb, Mom and Dad tells the story of Joan Blake (June Carlson), a young woman who falls for pilot Jack Griffin (Bob Lowell) after being sweet-talked into sex. After his death in a plane crash, Joan discovers she is pregnant with his child, prompting her to confront her mother, Sarah Blake (Lois Austin). The film features graphic images of the female anatomy and footage of live births, presented as part of its educational value, despite facing legal challenges and censorship.
