Juno is a very unusual movie for the Indian audience. It talks about a subject which was briefly dealt in its desi version in Kya Kehna(in
case you don’t remember, it was Preity Zinta’s first movie where she
gets pregnant as a college-going girl, courtesy Saif Ali Khan). Juno
the movie is about a 16-year-old girl named Juno, who is named so after
her father’s fascination for Roman and Greek Gods. Juno the protagonist
struggles with an unplanned pregnancy after her one-night sexual
encounter with her high-school friend.
Juno is a very sensitive and light-hearted film,
and keeps the audience involved till the end. The performances are very
natural. The character of Juno is portrayed effortlessly by 20-year-old
Ellen Page, who I have seen for the first time on screen. Even the
support cast is excellent. The most familiar face is that of Jennifer
Garner, who plays the parent who eventually adopts Juno’s child. Juno’s
parents are shown as concerned parents who stand by their child even
after she discloses her pregnancy to them. Though they are shocked they
plan to go ahead with the delivery.
