Juno https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/36/Junoposter2007.png Dir: Jason Reitman Genre: Comedy, Coming of Age Year: 2007 Is Juno my generation's Almost Famous? High Fidelity? It seems like it might be, given how many people my age (particularly girls) decided to base their entire personalities on this movie--from fashion to music to attitude. As annoying as that can be, and as much as I want to hate it, I still have to concede that Juno is one of the best comedies of the past twenty years. Unlike many of those "quirky girl does zany things" movies, Juno has a lot depth to it. It's ultimately a story about maturation--from naive idealism into the pragmatism of adulthood. It's an arc that is supremely crafted by Diablo Cody, who deservedly made an entire career off of this one film. And yes, the soundtrack is bomb. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ... Copied to Clipboard! |
