Question: Is it ever revealed why Candy has the abortion? She is in a relationship with the baby's father, they both have jobs, etc. Is it because she doesn't want to raise the baby herself while he's at war?
The Cider House Rules (1999)
1 question
Directed by: Lasse Hallström
Starring: Michael Caine, Charlize Theron, Paul Rudd, J.K. Simmons, Delroy Lindo, Tobey Maguire
Factual error: When Homer and Candy go to the movies, the theater has stadium seating. This seating style in theaters wasn't used until much later, not in the early 1940's, and certainly not in Maine.
Homer: I'm just not supposed to get excited, you know. No strain. No stress. I try to keep calm all the time.
Wally Worthington: I can't imagine there's any strain or stress around here.
Trivia: This is Charlize Theron's second movie with Delroy Lindo, although their first movie together, Devil's Advocate (1997) didn't have any scenes of them together.
Answer: She was not married to the baby's father, which would have been an absolute stigma at the time.
