''Tomorrow's Children'' is a 1934 American film directed by Crane Wilbur which protests against the eugenic policies then in force in many states. The film was deemed "immoral", "tending to corrupt morals", and "tending to incite crime".〔Motion Picture Herald, November 1938, Quigley Publishing Co., Print.〕 The film is also known as ''The Unborn'' in the United Kingdom. == Summary ==
''Tomorrow's Children'' follows the nature vs. nurture story of Alice Mason, starring Diane Sinclair, who wants nothing more than to settle down with her fiance, Jim, and raise their prospective family. All those goals crumble when her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mason, are forced into sterilization, or they'll lose their welfare checks. Due to her parents' alcoholism and less than stellar discipline, her siblings are physically disabled, mentally unstable, or have criminal ties. Although Alice represents the only real beneficial member of the family, she has been ordered sterilized herself along with her relatives to end their further corrupt offspring. Rather than accepting with the court order with the rest of the Mason family, Alice flees the house before giving an answer. She is later caught and taken by the police. Her fiance, Jim, makes a bold case to Dr. Brooks, to which he aids them by testifying on Alice's behalf. The court's decision was unchanged. Another ally of Alice and Jim is Father O'Brien, played by director Crane Wilbur. O'Brien is talking to Mrs. Mason, begging her to reconsider the decision to sterilize. She refuses and decides to keep the welfare income. However, in a drunken haze, it is revealed that she was not Alice's biological mother. Father O'Brien races to stop the procedure with the new information. Dr. Brooks is ultimately able to stop the procedure in time.
