Tom McGrath, dir. Michael McCullers, script; Marla Frazee (based on the book by). USA: DreamWorks Animation (production) / 20th Century Fox Film Corporation (US and most of world distribution), 2017.[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3874544/?ref_=nv_sr_1] <br /> <br /> Animated family comedy with some satire, relevant here for its visual answer to the question, Where do babies come from? Not how babies are made — the protagonist child thinks his parents' explanation for that (never specified) is gross — but where they come from, which is Baby Corp. And Baby Corp. is imaged in the great tradition of the classic opening shot[http://tinyurl.com/krqaqw2] from King Vidor's THE CROWD (1928).[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0018806/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_1] and has as a variety of objective correlative for its operation not the conception, gestation, or birth of babies but a figurative delivery. The delivery comes via a huge (slightly Rube Goldberg) apparatus that combines a roller coaster with train switching and pinball flippers and has a crucial decision-stop where the baby is tickled. Normal babies who laugh are born into families; babies that don't laugh go into Management. However, on a special undercover mission the Boss Baby does arrive to join a family, travelling by taxi. <br /> <br /> <br /> RDE, Initial Compiler,07/IV/17<br /> <br /> [[CATEGORY: Drama]]<br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Boss Baby}}</div> Erlichrd
