Juno Impressions

I loved this movie!

Juno is a film about a young teenage girls who with the help of her best friend attempts to find a home for her unborn baby after learning she was pregnant. I was very impressed with the way Juno handled herself through the pregancy.

At some points in the movie it really made me feel uncomfortable proably because of the way I was brought up and my beliefs about pregnancy. She got pregnant by Bleeker and it was kind of like nothing happened. I was just thinking throughout the film how freaked out I would have been if I was her.

I think the most important lesson for Juno was to learn how difficult life can be at times, the importance of family and enjoying her teenage years which goes back to what I had said the first day of class about how some teenagers in this generation want to jump that stage of being a teenager and most of the time this is when they encounter situations that they have to face.

My hopes at the end of the movie was that Juno with her family's support was going to keep the baby and move on. However, I was also impressed with her mature decision since she found out about her pregnancy to give up her baby to individuals who would care for the baby. Not every teenager has that capability to understand the challenges that would have come from keeping that baby. Smart move!!!
