Citizen Ruth Movie Review Movie Review Citizen Ruth In the movie Citizen Ruth, a woman named Ruth Stoops is an inhalant abusing, poverty-stricken woman who constantly gets arrested. The judge charges her with criminal endangerment of her fetus. That’s when she finds out that she’s pregnant with her fifth child, and the state has already stripped her visitation rights to see her other children. The judge also tells her, however, that if she gets an abortion they'll be more lenient with her and she won’t have to stay in jail as long. This angers members of a pro-life group called the "Baby Savers.” She meets the head operator of “Baby Savers” Gail Stoney in jail when she’s having a nervous breakdown on the floor. Gail and her husband post bail and Ruth goes to live with them and their teenage daughter, Cheryl and younger son Matthew. There, she inconveniences their family, but claims to want to fix her life up for her sake and for her baby’s. Soon they're taking her to pro-life protests at a woman's clinic, but she starts huffing again, and they kick her out because they find her at an alley behind the clinic huffing and beating their son.
