"Our Time" is set against a backdrop of 1950s boarding schools, and like other films of that sort, it has a "coming of age" theme. What makes it unique is its details: the coming of age in this case is the horror of pregnancy in a pre-Roe v. Wade era. Well-made, well-acted and very absorbing, "Our Time" is a cautionary tale for anyone who thinks abortion should be illegal. (Warning: it does not have a happy ending.)
An interesting side-note is that three of the principal actors were reunited just 3 years later; Pamela Sue Martin, Parker Stevenson and George O'Hanlon, Jr., all were regulars in the "Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries" TV series.
