JUNO... :)~

Kat and I went to see the Indie film Juno this past Sunday. It has been one of the few movies that we have seen lately that was worth the entrance fee...LOL...It was such a smart, sweet,wittily funny and romantical love story. I fell in love with Juno's attitude in the opening scene!

So it's about a teenage girl named Juno.... played by Ellen Page....who gets preggers after the first time she has sex with her "part time lover and a full time friend" boyfriend Paulie Bleeker...(Michael Cera)

She can't bring herself to have an abortion, and winds up finding the "perfect" potential parents (played by YUMMY Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman) in a local penny saver add. What I thought was real cool in the story, but not usually the norm in real life, was that she had a father and step mother who ultimately supported and respected her decisions.

Kudos to director Jason Rightman and writer and Oscar winner.....writer Diablo Cody for such a great feel good movie!

Don't want to give too much away! The Sountrack was great. Loved the song "Anyone Else but You" by the Moldy Peaches. Juno and Bleeker sing it together at the end of the movie. Here they are courtesy of Youtube. :)~
