“Diane Keaton gives a glorious comedy performance…She’s an ultra-feminine executive, a wide-eyed charmer, with a breathless ditziness that may remind you of Jean Arthur in The More the Merrier.”
– Pauline Kael, The New Yorker
“Sophisticated and screwballish in the best 30s tradition…The humor in Baby Boom is sharp without being heartless…irresistible charm.”
– Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Written by Nancy Meyers and Charles Shyer and directed by Shyer, Baby Boom (1987) is a romantic comedy with an edge, starring the superb Diane Keaton as a driven Manhattan career woman who finds her life turned upside down when she “inherits” a baby. A semi-satiric fantasy unfurls as she loses her job and her yuppie boyfriend (Harold Ramis), moves with baby to a deeply picturesque if falling-down Vermont house, and meets a helpful Gary Cooper-ish vet (Sam Shepard). Gorgeously shot by William A. Fraker, and featuring an iconic score by the great Bill Conti (Broadcast News, The Right Stuff).
