Juno

What a great film. A lot of folks will go into the theatre/rent the disk with preconceptions about this movie, but I highly recommend watching it for itself. I don't know if there is a deep political message under the covers but taken at face value this is a mostly light hearted look at how a brave girl can take on one of the "worst" things that can happen to her and with the help of her friends and family come out OK.

If anything the biggest hole in this film is the fact that the folks around her are too caring and wise, but who knows, maybe a lot of folks could be this way given the chance.  Anyhow, this was a great movie about people almost all doing the right thing...at least after the forgetting a rubber part. I really enjoyed it. An A
