Juno


Juno (Ellen Page) is a smart teenager facing a tough decision: what to do after she gets pregnant from a classmate (Michael Cera). Deciding to give the baby up for adoption to a rich couple (Jason Bateman, Jennifer Garner), she has the full support of both her parents (Allison Janney, J.K. Simmons). But is giving the child away really what she wants to do deep down in her heart?


Juno is a good film that has a great chance of being nominated for several Oscars including best actress, best original screenplay, and best film. Ellen Page gives a star making performance and if she gets nominated for an Oscar she has a great chance at winning. Jamie says "8".


This isn't Page's first time giving a great performance. Check out 2005's Hard Candy where she plays a "little-red-riding-hood" like character who turns the tables on a big bad wolf.
