Juno is a 2007 dramedy film directed by Jason Reitman and written by Diablo Cody. It stars Elliot Page* then-credited as Ellen Page, Michael Cera, J. K. Simmons, Allison Janney, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman and Olivia Thirlby.After having sex with her friend Paulie Bleeker (Cera), sixteen-year-old Juno MacGuff (Page) finds out that she is pregnant. After confronting her parents (Janney and Simmons), and considering having an abortion, Juno decides to give her baby up for adoption. Looking in the local newspaper, she finds a couple whom she deems to be the perfect parents — Vanessa and Mark Loring (Garner and Bateman).Upon meeting the Lorings, though they look like they live a charming life, Juno sees the couple may not have it all together. This causes her to re-examine the relationships in her own life, and wonder if any kind of love can really last a lifetime. | |

Practically Different Generations: Juno is sixteen while her half-sister Liberty Belle is five, creating an eleven year age gap between the two half-sisters. And although we never actually see Juno's birth mom's "replacement kids", the stock photos provided are two toddlers and a baby, implying that this is applied for both sides of Juno's biological parents. | |

Parental Abandonment: Juno's biological mother divorced her father and left Juno behind for her new husband and three kids she had with him or as Juno calls them, "her replacement family". And instead of remaining physical contact with her daughter, all Juno's biological mother does is send her a pet cactus every Valentine's Day. | |

This Is Wrong on So Many Levels!: Juno gets very mad at Mark for saying he's leaving Vanessa and makes it clear he wants to hang out with her; she points out they have a happy marriage, they're adopting her baby, and she is still a teen. Fortunately, she doesn't tell Vanessa the last part. | |

Living in a Furniture Store | |
| Juno / int_346063bd | comment |
Living in a Furniture Store: Averted with the MacGuff household, which has a realistic amount of knickknacks and clutter for a working class family, and with Bleeker's room. Played straight with Mark and Vanessa's house. Except for Mark's room, which is full of old records and musical paraphernalia and is kind of messy in a sweet way, their home is perfectly arranged and themed in white, beige and glass. After the adoption, Vanessa's night table acquires an appropriate layer of wadded tissues and baby formula. Vanessa is implied to have an orderly life without much 'clutter'. What better way to symbolize that than to have a house with not too many small objects left lying around? | |

Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: The attitude that the film takes toward teen pregnancy is very idealistic, albeit not altogether positive. (Juno's complaining about being called the "Cautionary Whale" is Played for Laughs, for instance.) | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Juno / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Brenda warns Juno that Mark is oddly laid-back about a teenager visiting him to deliver an ultrasound, and it's weird to visit a married couple when one of the members is away. Juno blows her off; she says that Mark is just a friend and she wants to make sure her baby is with Good Parents. It turns out Brenda was right; Mark got the wrong signals from Juno and decides to leave Vanessa, realizing he's not ready for fatherhood and surely Juno will hook up with him. Juno becomes disgusted and upset while saying This Is Wrong on So Many Levels!, blaming herself for breaking up Mark and Vanessa's marriage. After drinking a 16-ounce Slushee drink, Juno ends up vomiting into an urn due to the large consumption (that, and morning sickness). While Juno's friend Leah's crush on an older man (her teacher Keith) is Played for Laughs, Juno is repulsed when Mark announces that he is going to leave his wife Vanessa and puts the moves on Juno. | |

Though there's no official adoption, Juno and her stepmother Brenda have elements of this; Brenda is as protective and supportive of Juno as if Juno were her biological child (even referring to her as "my kid" in one scene), and Juno seems to see Brenda as a Parental Substitute for her own Missing Mom. | |

Ungrateful Bastard: Mark gets paid a pretty penny to write music, but that's not enough for him. Granted, it's not the same as being a famous musician, but considering how many artists don't get to make careers out of their passions at all, he looks like a real asshole for complaining. | |

Their First Time: "It started with a chair." Although Word of God says while it was Paulie's first time, it wasn't Juno's. This is also mentioned in a conversation between Leah and Juno from the screen test which wasn't in the final film. This was just the first time there were consequences. Also, this bit of dialogue implies that only Paulie was a virgin. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion | |
| Juno / int_8387bb18 | comment |
Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Juno changes her mind about getting an abortion. It is her initial decision, but she drops the idea while in the abortionist's waiting room. After hearing Su-Chin say that the unborn have fingernails (which they don't just yet), she's sitting in the waiting room and sees people doing various things to/with their nails and runs away in a panic. In the commentary, the director mentions that hearing about the fingernails and noticing them for the first time sort of humanized the baby for her. Though interestingly, aside from Su-Chin's protest, abortion isn't treated as evil or wrong by the characters. Though Juno ultimately decided against it, it's clear that she'd have had the love and support of her friends and family either way. | |

Deconstruction: The movie is one for an adult being a Manchild and One of the Kids. Mark at first seems nice enough; he plays guitar with Juno, shows off vintage comics he collects and makes friends with her family easily. It turns out that Mark isn't ready to shelve his dreams of being a rockstar or willing to be a father, but he's too cowardly to admit it to Vanessa until the climax. What's more, he hits on Juno, a minor, and expects her to be happy that he's leaving Vanessa and wants to keep hanging out with her. Unsurprisingly, Juno shuts him down and renews her friendship with Vanessa. | |

Foreshadowing: In the Mall scene when Vanessa first feels the baby kick, she tells Juno " I felt him" even though the gender hadn't been revealed yet. "He" is used to refer to a person with an unknown sex i.e. "They". Eventually Juno gives birth to a boy. Juno's disgust over Leah's crush on their 40-year-old science teacher Keith foreshadows her appropriate grossed out reaction when Mark puts the moves on her and announced he is leaving Vanessa. | |

Good Parents | |
| Juno / int_a30c287 | comment |
Brenda warns Juno that Mark is oddly laid-back about a teenager visiting him to deliver an ultrasound, and it's weird to visit a married couple when one of the members is away. Juno blows her off; she says that Mark is just a friend and she wants to make sure her baby is with Good Parents. It turns out Brenda was right; Mark got the wrong signals from Juno and decides to leave Vanessa, realizing he's not ready for fatherhood and surely Juno will hook up with him. Juno becomes disgusted and upset while saying This Is Wrong on So Many Levels!, blaming herself for breaking up Mark and Vanessa's marriage. | |

Face–Heel Turn: Mark. He spends the first half of the movie as "the cool adult" compared to the more uptight Vanessa, and Juno forms a close friendship with him. However, he leaves Vanessa just as she's about to adopt Juno's baby, and comes off as an irresponsible deadbeat dad. The only good things that Mark does is admit that he doesn't want to fight Vanessa and accept working with a lawyer to make their divorce "collaborative". | |

Wicked Stepmother | |
| Juno / int_b070362d | comment |
Wicked Stepmother: Averted. Brenda makes sure Juno is healthy during her pregnancy, defends her against a rude ultrasound technician, and generally supports her along the way (and refers to her as "my kid"). In fact, that's later used in the conversation between Juno and her father, about whether or not there are still people in happy relationships. Her dad points out that while his first marriage with Juno's mom didn't turn out well, things with Brenda were still going very good. If anything, it's Juno's biological mother who comes close to this trope: sending Juno a cactus every Valentine's Day is her mother's only contact with her, and Juno even refers to her half-siblings as her mother's "replacement kids" (while referring to her father's daughter with Brenda as her sister). | |

Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?: While Juno is unusual as a name and is remarked on a few times, it's still a very old one used every now and then for girls. Her sister being named Liberty Bell on the other hand, just comes off as bizarre, even if they refer to her as LB most of the time. Juno disagrees with the name choice Madison for her unborn baby (if it was a girl) as she thinks it's "kinda gay". | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: Juno and Mark perform an acoustic version of Hole's "Doll Parts". When Juno is asked about whether her band is getting back together, she replies, "Once Tino gets a new drumhead, we should be ready to rock," hinting at My So-Called Life. "ThunderCats are goooooo!" The B-movies and records that Mark and Juno watch, listen to and talk about. Leah saying "I love Woody Allen" to the science teacher is an obvious in-joke. Leah is supposed to be 17 here; the teacher is about 40; they're both talking about Woody Allen who is a well-known man who for many years loved young woman (sometimes even allegedly girls). So the joke has an uncomfortable but hilarious ring to it. | |

Dating What Daddy Hates: Surprisingly averted. Though he's understandably annoyed that he got her pregnant, Juno's dad doesn't seem to have any real qualms about Juno dating Paulie. If anything, he seems impressed that Paulie was virile enough to get anyone pregnant. While he does still grumble that he wants to punch him "in the wiener" next time he sees him, he clearly doesn't mean it (and seems to agree with Bren's point that it was very unlikely Paulie's idea). On the other hand, Paulie's mother doesn't like Juno. | |

Manchild | |
| Juno / int_e150c4c7 | comment |
Manchild: Mark's fear of commitment to adopting a child with his wife comes from his more selfish fear that doing so will get in the way of his dream of being a "real" musician, which to him means living in lofts and pretending to be an edgy punk rocker. It's worth nothing that, like Juno and her peers, he's definitely a hipster, but the film makes it clear that while those attitudes are fine for teenagers and 20-somethings, it makes adults look pathetic. It's implied that part of the reason he's so eager to be friendly with Juno is that being pals with a sixteen-year-old makes him feel younger. | |

Running Gag | |
| Juno / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Fetuses having fingernails, which Juno can't stop pondering after Su-Chin claims it. Fingernails also feature into the film in other ways; Brenda, Juno's stepmother, owns a nail salon, for example. There's also a literal one in the form of the Dancing Elk track team running through the seasons. Juno's hang-ups over adults' seeming obsession with teenagers being "sexually active". | |

Comically Missing the Point: Juno several times, illustrating her naive, short-sighted worldview and how much of a kid she really is. As Juno is telling her parents that she is pregnant: Also occurs when Juno first meets with the Lorings and their lawyer: | |

Brick Joke: In an early sequence, Juno claims that Steve Rendazo, a popular jock that regularly torments her, secretly wants her, as she represents the "freaky girls" he really pines for instead of the cheerleaders they stereotypically pursue. By the end of the movie, when she reunites with Bleeker and the two publicly make out, the film cuts to Steve looking away in shame and jealousy. The repeated insistence that having sex wasn't Paulie's idea; even Juno's stepmother states it, and Paulie is thoroughly confused by the notion that it wasn't his idea. At one point, Bren confronts Juno about allegedly vomiting a blue Slushee into her prized urn; she did do this, but she shifts the blame to her half-sister Liberty Bell. Later on, the two come to verbal blows about Juno hanging out with Mark; as Juno leaves, she deliberately dumps another blue Slushee into the urn. When Juno and Mark are discussing baby names, Juno tells Mark she was named after Zeus' main wife, who "was really beautiful but really mean". Later, when Juno is fighting with Paulie in the hallway about being pregnant, he says to her "Like I would marry you! You'd be the meanest wife ever". | |

Asian Speekee Engrish: On paper, it would appear that Su-Chin was supposed to be portrayed this way. In practice, she speaks with no accent whatsoever, making her bad grammar just seem... odd. | |
