movie. Movies are hard for me to blog about. Most of them are, well, garbage or mediocre.I saw some reviews of Juno and knew it had won an Oscar (best screenplay I think). The acting seemed similar to Napoleon Dynamite (which we all like) so I took a chance and paid my 12 bucks.
As it turned out, B and I had the theater to ourselves. (it was a Thursday night). The movie was GREAT! It was very funny and touching. Having been through eight pregnancies, we were able identify with a lot of the humor. The casting was excellent. Overall, the movie was kinda like Napoleon Dynamite and Rory from the Gilmore Girls have a baby--and cuss. Boy, do they cuss. Be forwarned, there's LOTS of blue language in this one and a few suggestive scenes. (The movie's about a high school pregnancy)
There's also lots of family support, loyalty, "blue collar" wisdom, and heck, even a mostly pro-life perspective. Probably the most enjoyable non-animated night we've had at the movies in a long time. But please, watch the language.

We've heard a LOT about this movie - mostly from the adoptive perspective - we're looking forward to watching it! Thanks for sharing!
