(One therapist tells Bob of Zoloft, “The lowest clinical dose is 25 milligrams - we can start off with 50 milligrams.”) Told by a nurse that her chances of getting pregnant are between 2 and 3 percent, a smiling, bubbly Amy quickly asks, “Do you think it’s closer to two or three?” Told by his editor that his music review is unpublishable because he had written the word “lies” 912 times, Bob responds, “How long did you want it ?” Then there are Bob’s therapists, who are as irresponsible as their patients. Unexpected tackles a serious subject with off-beat humor. The animals then would “become a substitute” for the children they’ve never had, Hunt said. He asked screenwriter Rodney Patrick Vaccaro to insert an angle about an infertile couple wanting to adopt.

None of them, though, satisfied Hunt, who subsequently decided he needed a “different engine” for the movie. “We wrote several screenplays based on just the book,” director David Hunt told Crosswalk. Unexpected is based on the popular 2003 book Enslaved by Ducks (Bob Tarte), which told the humorous tale of a man whose life of serenity is interrupted by his wife’s collection of animals. Here are three things you should know about it: It was directed by David Hunt and produced by his wife, Patricia Heaton. The new movie Unexpected (TV-14), streaming on major platforms, follows the adoption-centric story of Amy and Bob as they navigate the trials of life and a yard full of creatures. “There is a plan for us,” she tells her husband. She also believes God is watching over her, guiding her family. Still, she has a burning desire to raise a child. Soon, she has a small zoo outside her two-story abode. She has plenty of furry critters - a rabbit named “Binky” is her favorite - but she and her husband Bob have yet to have a baby.įacing a sense of emptiness, Amy pours her energy into other hobbies. Amy is a quirky, optimistic young woman who has a passion for animals and a love for children.
