After about 25 or more years of only reading about this film, I finally watched this on Netflix disc with my mom just now. We both really enjoyed this tale about a businesswoman played by Diane Keaton suddenly having a baby forced into her life after a cousin she hardly knew and that cousin's spouse dies and she inherits that child. Harold Ramis is amusing as the initial bedmate. I also liked seeing former SNLer Mary Gross as her secretary and current member of the show at the time, Victoria Jackson, as the initial nanny. My favorite scene concerns Ms. Keaton's first encounter with Sam Shepard when she finds out he's a vet whom she just revealed her not having sex for a long time! I'll stop there and just say this was a little funny and a little romantic. Nicely written by Nancy Meyers and Charles Shyer who also directed. So that's a recommendation of Baby Boom.
