"Don Parham's beautifully crafted film, The Choice, goes beyond stereotypes and slogans ... a real discussion starter, it should be used very effectively in schools." John Masanauskas, Education writer, Herald Sun
"To deal with one of the most emotive topics around, writer, producer and director, Don Parham, has adopted a hands-off approach. Each person is filmed simply telling his or her story, which is intercut with melancholy cityscapes and music. This is appropriate as it's a sad film ... It charts the vagaries of human connections, the thwarting of hope and the bittersweet benefit of hindsight. Parham has tackled many big social issues in documentaries ... If (his) aim is to generate discussion, he will succeed." Jacqui Taffel, Sydney Morning Herald
"It was refreshing to see a mainstream broadcaster providing space for women to share their feelings about having had an abortion. As the author of a book on women's experiences of grief after abortion, I know that for so many, the lasting emotional impact of abortion is rarely aired. Parham's sensitive film finally gives a voice to those women." Melinda Tankard Reist, Author, Co-founder Women’s Forum Australia
