Yesterday I watched again one of my favorite films: Juno. I love it because is really very funny (the screenplay is fantastic!) and the subject of the film is up-to-date.
This film talks about Juno's life a sixteen year old teenager. The film starts with an image of Juno, drinking and drinking Sunny D, and an armchair. She is looking the armchair because she made love with a friend on it. Juno is worried because she thinks she is pregnant, so she's drinking tons of Sunny because she wants to produce enough pee to do another pregnancy test (she did another pregnancy test before, but she thought that the first test is not very reliable). When she finishes drinking all the Sunny, she goes to a store and buys a pregnancy test, but the result is again positive; Juno is pregnant. After this, Juno calls her friend Leah and tells her her problem. Leah helps Juno and finally Juno decides to terminate her pregnancy. Juno goes to Bleeker's house (Bleeker is who slept with Juno; her best friend) and tells him that she is pregnant and she wants to have an abortion. He says to her that he respects her decision. So the day after that Juno goes to interrupt her pregnancy but finally she decides not to abort. She goes to see Leah and tells her that she has changed her mind and she wants to give up her baby in adoption. So they start to look for the perfect couple for her baby and finally they find it. Then Juno and Leah go to Juno's home to tell Juno's parents (Well, Juno's father and the wife of Juno's father) that she is pregnant and she wants to give up the baby in adoption. Her father says to her that he will go with Juno to meet the parents-to-be of Juno's baby. So the day after they go to meet Vanessa and Mark. They live in a posh neighborhood and they have a big house. They talk about the adoption and they agree that Juno will come to show the couple the ultrasound scan of the baby and they agree that they won't send Juno any pictures of the baby (because Juno doesn't want to).
In time Juno starts to strike up friendship with Mark because she shares with him her pleasures. They both love rock and terror films. Mark starts to remember his life after being married with Vanessa; he misses this life.
Juno is still in love with Bleeker but she doesn't want to admit it and she ignores him; so she breaks Bleeker's heart. But when Bleeker doesn't invite Juno to the graduation dance and invites Katrina, she feels very jealous and she gets angry with Bleeker.
When she is about to give birth she goes to visit Mark and Vanessa; Mark was alone at home. He tells her that he is going to break up with Vanessa, and Juno gets angry with him. Suddenly Vanessa gets home and Mark and she argue. Juno comes out the house crying and writes a note for Vanessa. After that she goes to her house and she speaks with her father about love and she realizes that she loves Bleeker, so she goes and she reveals her feelings to him.
Some days after, at Bleeker's athletics competition, he realizes that Juno isn't in the grandstand and he realizes that she was giving birth so he goes to the hospital with Juno. Juno and Bleeker don't want to see the baby because they feel that is Vanessa's.
Finally Vanessa has her baby, a boy, and in the baby's bedroom wall is hanging Juno's note which says: "If you are still in, I’m still in. Juno"
