Juno
Posted on December 30th, 2007
In the last month there has been a bunch of great movies. Many seem to be heavy-handed, violent, and overly dramatic. One exception is the “Juno.” The movie is about a precocious young outsider, Juno (Ellen Page) who gets pregnant at the tender age of 16. Her boyfriend, Paulie Bleeker (Michael Cera) is a quiet boy who is supportive but really scared. The movie is hilarious in an honest way. It features original dialogue, quirky filmmaking, and one of the years best soundtracks.
