"Nah... I mean, I'm already pregnant, so what other kind of shenanigans could I get into?" – Juno

Why watch this? This is a wonderfully unique film about Zoomers and teen pregnancy.

Plot Summary: Faced with an unplanned teenage pregnancy, the precocious and witty Juno MacGuff decides to carry the baby to term and place it for adoption. She finds prospective adoptive parents, Mark and Vanessa Loring, and begins navigating the complexities of their lives and her own relationships as her pregnancy progresses. Throughout the four seasons of her pregnancy, Juno deals with the emotional and physical challenges, and comes to a deeper understanding of herself, family, and the meaning of love.

Dad's Preview: This quirky little movie is so easy to watch. Perhaps it's Ellen Page (today he is Elliott Page) and her tomboyish, no-nonsense wit. Maybe it's Michael Cera as the loveable slacker, Bleeker. Regardless, it's fun see them stumble through the process of her pregnancy... and her tough decision to give the baby up for adoption. Also helping the film is a great soundtrack from their generation.
