公民露丝 (1996)
Citizen Ruth
一名怀孕的吸毒女子在是否堕胎之间左右为难。影片中没有绝对正面的人物，佩恩以一种不计后果的勇气和甚至有些刻毒的嘲讽对堕胎这一事件上的双方都进行了挖苦——在这场上升到意识形态领域的争执中，个体生命是最终被忽视和被牺牲的。尽管喜剧元素有些夸张过火，但佩恩犀利敏锐的社会讽刺和出色的幽默感却在影片中初露峥嵘。也是从这部电影开始，佩恩和吉姆·泰勒进行合作编剧。

趣闻
Citizen Ruth is a 1996 American satirical black comedy film directed by Alexander Payne, in his feature film directorial debut, and starring Laura Dern, Swoosie Kurtz, Kelly Preston, Burt Reynolds, Kurtwood Smith, Mary Kay Place, Kenneth Mars, and Tippi Hedren. The film follows a poor, drug-addled, irresponsible pregnant woman who unexpectedly attracts national attention from those involved in the abortion debate. The story was inspired by the case of Martina Greywind, a homeless, unmarried mother from North Dakota who was offered $15,000 to carry what would have been her fifth child to term. This film marked Kenneth Mars’ final theatrical film role.
