Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, sixteen year old high-schooler, Juno MacGuff, makes an unusual decision regarding her unborn child.
Juno is a comedy with a soft core, carried by quick, confident dialogue and an indie folk soundtrack that keeps the tone warm and slightly off-beat. It takes a heavy subject seriously without ever turning heavy, and it lives on a lead character who hides her uncertainty behind dry humor. It feels friendly, honest and surprisingly quiet in the moments that count.
Good for you if you like coming-of-age stories that are funny and warm at once and take teenagers seriously.
