Amy Schumer’s New Netflix Movie Sparks Meaningful Conversation 

Movies often provide a sort of escapism through thrilling amusement, action and entertainment. The temporary disconnect from reality through cinema can be a satisfying retreat. However, it is also worth noticing the way that many films seek to not just pull viewers away from their reality, but to offer a commentary on it. Films that open up the floor for discussion about culture, popular philosophies and societal issues are intriguing. When a film is able to do this as a romantic comedy rather than a heavy drama, the movie is not just intriguing, it is worthy of a standing ovation. Amy Schumer’s newest romcom, Kinda Pregnant, released through Netflix on Feb.5, does just this.
