archive nine: pregnancy

december 30, 2007

i love going to the movies and leaving feeling happier and more giddy than when i walked in. tonight was no exception, i feel so full of joy right now!

who knew that teenage pregnancy could be so darn cute? after much anticipation, i finally had the chance to see the movie "juno". the movie was nothing close to irreverent; it had a great heart and i could easily watch it with my mother (it wasn't raunchy). the scenario surrounding juno is far from desirable, no matter how common unplanned pregnancy is these days. yet ellen page managed to portray a beautiful balance of selflessness and vulnerability, not to mention the extremely witty and intellegent banter found in juno's dialogue. i fell in love with the characters in this movie - michael cera's performance as "bleeker" was so cute, he reminded me why i am attracted to the dorky, musician types. and the music throughout this film was rad - featuring groups like sonic youth, the moldy peaches and the velvet underground/

all around wonderful movie! it easily landed on my top 5 movies of 2007 (along with "Lars and the Real Girl") - GO AND SEE JUNO, PEOPLE!
