The Darling Family is a 1994 Canadian drama film directed by Alan Zweig and written by Linda Griffiths.[1] Based on Griffiths' 1991 play of the same name, the film stars Griffiths and Alan Williams as a couple discussing the state of their relationship after the woman unexpectedly becomes pregnant,[2] blending both scenes in which they talk to each other with scenes in which they verbalize their interior monologues.[3]
