TEST TUBE BABIES-1948-in this "story as old as time", George (William Thomason) and Kathy (Dorothy Duke) are a happily married couple until Kathy starts hanging around with some boozy friends. At one of their get togethers there's some brief nudity. After two women have a tussle at the house while George is working late the couple decide to have a family but nothing happens. Kathy visits Dr. Wright (Timothy Farrell in his film debut) for help. "Do you think it's me?" asks George then finds out he's sterile. They decide to use artificial insemination. Like in GLEN OR GLENDA?, Farrell gets to explain all the details and Kathy really comes across as a dumb Dora. 5 years later they have 3 kids!
Director W. Merle Connell also made THE DEVIL'S SLEEP and UNTAMED WOMEN and later cinematographer on THE UNEARTHY. Producer George Weiss (still alive at this posting) made the aforementioned GLEN OR GLENDA? plus the OLGA series of movies in the early '60's.
Badly made, badly acted, bad print. For Timothy Farrell completists only!
